J.‑‑ The petitioner stands convicted under section 302 and sentenced to imprisonment for life and a fine of Rs.2,000 and in default of payment of fine to further six months' R.I. He has also been convicted under section 323, P.P.C. and sentenced to six months' R.I. However, both the sentences have been ordered to run concurrently. By our order, dated 15th December, 1984, the petition filed by the petitioner through jail directed against his conviction and sentence was dismissed.
