Pasayat, J.<\/p>\n<p>1. This revision is directed against the judgment of &#8220;learned Addl. Sessions judge, Koraput, jeypore confirming an order of conviction and sentence awaided by the learned Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Kotpad. teamed Magistrate found the petitioners guilty under Secs. 379\/34 of the Indian Penal Code, I860 (in short the &#8216;Code&#8217;), in default to undergo rigorous imprisonment for two months There was also a direction out of fine amount if realised, a sum of Rs. 100\/- was to be paid to the complinant as compensation. Learned Addl. Sessions Judge on analysis of evidence held that bona fide claim over property in question was not established and therefore, offence Under Section 379\/34 of the Code was clearly made out. It was held by learned Migistrate that petitioners are not entitled to get the benefits of Probation of Offenders Act, 1958 ( in short the &#8216;Probation Act&#8217;), The learned Addl Sessions Judge has not dealt with this aspect specifically, but has held that sentence was reasonable.\n<\/p>\n<p>2. Though various points were urged by learned counsel for petitioners characterising conviction to be unreasonable and perverse, I do not find any scope for interference considering the fact that Courts below have made an elaborate analysis of evidence on record and have held that petitioners did not establish plea of bona fide claim of right. However, I find that petitioners are illiterate persons belonging to an interior village of Koraput district. They have no previous conviction. Having regard to the circumstances of the case including nature of offence and character of the offender, I feel that instead of sentencing them to any punishment or releasing them on probation of good conduct Under Section 4 of the Probation Act. it would be appropriate to release them after admonition, which I do by exercise of powers Under Section 3 of Probation Act.\n<\/p>\n<p>It was urged by the learned counsel for the State that High Court has no power to exercise jurisdiction Under Section 3 of the Probation Act. The position has been settled beyond doubt by the apex Court in AIR 1963 SC 1088 : Ramji Missar and Anr. v. State of Bihar. High Court has power to release an accused Under Section 3 of the Probation Act after due admonition.\n<\/p>\n<p>Criminal Revision is disposed of accordingly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Orissa High Court Buti Domb And Anr. vs Suti Domb on 10 July, 1991 Equivalent citations: 1991 II OLR 180 Author: A Pasayat Bench: A Pasayat JUDGMENT A.
