                    CRL.R.P. NO. 3910 OF 2008
                   ------------------------------------------
            Dated this the 2nd day of December, 2008

                               O R D E R

Revision petitioner was convicted and sentenced for the

offence under section 324 of Indian Penal Code in C.C.493 of

2003 on the file of Judicial First Class Magistrate-I, Alappuzha as

confirmed in Crl. Appeal 460 of 2007 on the file of Additional

Sessions Judge, Alappuzha. Petitioner/first accused was

convicted finding that he voluntarily caused hurt to PWs 1 and 2

with a dangerous weapon.

2. Along with revision, revision petitioner filed

Crl.M.A.11940 of 2008, an application under section 320 of Code

of Criminal Procedure for permission to compound the offence.

Though an offence under section 324 of IPC is now not

compoundable in view of Central Act 25 of 2005, section 28 (a)

by which section 324 was omitted from the list of compoundable

offences, has not come into effect. In such circumstances

offence under section 324 of IPC is compoundable. Hence

Crl.M.A.11940 of 2008 is allowed. Permission is granted to

compound the offence. Offence is compounded.

JUDGE
