Judgment & Decree
Ch. Muhammad Hussain for Petitioner. Altaf Muhammad Khan for the State. Date of hearing: 26th February, 1991. The petitioner stands convicted under section 332/353/34, P.P.C. and sentenced to one year's R.I. on each count with the direction that the sentences shall run concurrently.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner has not challenged the conviction. He has simply requested for reduction in sentence. Learned counsel for the State has opposed his request.
3. I have considered the matter carefully. The occurrence took place in the year 1981. No one was injured during this occurrence. The petitioner was sent to I jail thrice. After the rejection of his appeal, he remained for one month and 19 days in jail, before he could be released on bail in this revision petition. He had remained for sufficient time as under-trial prisoner. So, the agony of protracted trial coupled with the imprisonment he had suffered as under-trial prisoner/convict would meet the case. Order accordingly. SA./A-1297/L Order accordingly.
