By the above judgment, the court below<\/p>\n<p>convicted  the   revision         petitioner          for  the    offence<\/p>\n<p>punishable under Section 138 of the                          Negotiable<\/p>\n<p>Instruments Act and accordingly he is sentenced.<\/p>\n<p>     2.  The   first    respondent             is    the   complainant.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, on 20-06-2006 the revision petitioner<\/p>\n<p>had obtained a loan of Rs. 1,00,000\/- from him                       and<\/p>\n<p>towards the discharge of the said liability, the accused<\/p>\n<p>issued a cheque dated 18 -07 &#8211; 2006 for a sum of<\/p>\n<p>Crl. RP 388\/2010<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                              2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Rs. 1,00,000\/-.      When the cheque was presented for<\/p>\n<p>encashment, it was dishonored for want of sufficient fund.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently the        complainant had caused to sent a<\/p>\n<p>lawyer        notice to the  revision petitioner \/ accused<\/p>\n<p>intimating him about the dishonor of cheque and further<\/p>\n<p>demanding him to pay          the amount covered by the<\/p>\n<p>cheque. As there was no payment, he approached the<\/p>\n<p>court below by filing a formal complaint upon which<\/p>\n<p>cognizance was taken and instituted in S.T. Case No.<\/p>\n<p>608\/2006          in the Judicial First Class Court III<\/p>\n<p>Kanjirappilly.      During the  trial, the complainant was<\/p>\n<p>examined as PW 1 and Exhibit P1 to P6 were marked. No<\/p>\n<p>evidence, either documentary or oral, was adduced from<\/p>\n<p>the side of the defence. On the basis of the evidence and<\/p>\n<p>materials adduced before the trial court, it is found that<\/p>\n<p>the revision petitioner is guilty of the offence under<\/p>\n<p>Crl. RP 388\/2010<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                               3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act and<\/p>\n<p>accordingly the accused\/revision petitioner is sentenced<\/p>\n<p>to undergo simple imprisonment for 6 months and further<\/p>\n<p>ordered to pay          a    sum     of Rs.   1,00,000\/- as<\/p>\n<p>compensation under        Section 357 (3) of Cr.P.C and in<\/p>\n<p>default of payment of the compensation, it was ordered to<\/p>\n<p>undergo simple imprisonment for 2 months.<\/p>\n<p>        3. Aggrieved   by  the    order of conviction and<\/p>\n<p>sentence        the accused \/ revision petitioner preferred<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P 202\/2009 which was disposed of by the Court<\/p>\n<p>below by its judgment dated 07-09-2009. While disposing<\/p>\n<p>of the appeal, Lower Appellate Court confirmed the<\/p>\n<p>conviction, but the sentence was modified and reduced to<\/p>\n<p>one month simple imprisonment. The direction to pay the<\/p>\n<p>compensation is maintained. It is the above conviction<\/p>\n<p>and sentence are challenged in this revision petition.<\/p>\n<p>Crl. RP 388\/2010<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>        4. I have heard the learned counsel appearing for the<\/p>\n<p>revision petitioner, who submitted that the revision<\/p>\n<p>petitioner, was the owner of a bus            in which the<\/p>\n<p>complainant had worked as a driver and his son was also<\/p>\n<p>given a job in the bus service during the year 2002 and<\/p>\n<p>that job was given on deposit of a sum of Rs. 15,000\/- as<\/p>\n<p>security and at that time, a blank cheque was given to the<\/p>\n<p>son by way of security for repayment and it was the said<\/p>\n<p>cheque misused by the complainant for             filing the<\/p>\n<p>complaint.\n<\/p>\n<p>        5. From the judgment of the court below it can be<\/p>\n<p>seen that when PW1 was examined before the court below<\/p>\n<p>he had categorically deposed about the transaction.<\/p>\n<p>Admittedly, there is no dispute regarding the signature<\/p>\n<p>contained in the cheque in question. According to the<\/p>\n<p>revision petitioner, the cheque was given only as a<\/p>\n<p>Crl. RP 388\/2010<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                              5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>security for the repayment of the amount.         The court<\/p>\n<p>below found that the above case of the defence has not<\/p>\n<p>been substantiated and no evidence adduced, during trial<\/p>\n<p>to probabilise the above version of the defence. The court<\/p>\n<p>below has also found that though a statutory notice was<\/p>\n<p>issued to the accused and the same was received by him,<\/p>\n<p>no proper reply was issued. Thus it can be seen that the<\/p>\n<p>defence story was put forward by the defence for the<\/p>\n<p>first time only at the time of trial. If it was correct, the<\/p>\n<p>same could have been stated at appropriate time only by<\/p>\n<p>way of reply to the statutory notice. Thus on the basis of<\/p>\n<p>the above facts and situation and based upon the evidence<\/p>\n<p>and materials on records, the trial court found that the<\/p>\n<p>revision petitioner is guilty of the offence charged against<\/p>\n<p>him. Therefore I find no reason to interfere with the<\/p>\n<p>order of conviction passed by the courts below.<\/p>\n<p>Crl. RP 388\/2010<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>        6. Learned counsel for the revision petitioner<\/p>\n<p>submitted that some leniency may be shown in favour of<\/p>\n<p>the revision petitioner in the matter of sentence as he has<\/p>\n<p>no sufficient income.           Based on the facts        and<\/p>\n<p>circumstances involved in the matter, I am of the view<\/p>\n<p>that some modification can be effected with respect to the<\/p>\n<p>sentence and breathing time can be granted to make the<\/p>\n<p>payment as ordered by the court below.\n<\/p>\n<p>        7. In the result this revision petition is disposed of<\/p>\n<p>confirming the conviction but reducing the sentence of<\/p>\n<p>imprisonment from one month to one day, ie. till the rising<\/p>\n<p>of the court and is further directed to make the payment<\/p>\n<p>of compensation amount awarded by the court below<\/p>\n<p>within one month on the date on which he appears for<\/p>\n<p>receiving the sentence. The revision petitioner is directed<\/p>\n<p>to       appear   before the trial court on 15-03-2010 to<\/p>\n<p>Crl. RP 388\/2010<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                 7<\/span><\/p>\n<p>receive the sentence and to make the payment of the<\/p>\n<p>compensation amount fixed by the court below. If the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner fails to comply with the above direction,   the<\/p>\n<p>trial court is free to take coercive steps to procure the<\/p>\n<p>presence of the revision petitioner and to execute the<\/p>\n<p>sentence and to realise the compensation amount as<\/p>\n<p>ordered.\n<\/p>\n<p>        Revision petition is disposed of accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>                                  V.K.
