The second accused was<\/p>\n<p>convicted additionally for the offence under<\/p>\n<p>section 471 of Indian Penal Code also.   Though<\/p>\n<p>petitioners  challenged   the  conviction  and<\/p>\n<p>sentence  before     Sessions  Court,   Manjeri<\/p>\n<p>learned Sessions Judge on reappreciation of<\/p>\n<p>evidence confirmed the conviction and sentence<\/p>\n<p>and dismissed the appeal.  First accused filed<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004    and      second     accused<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.2503\/2003 challenging   the  conviction<\/p>\n<p>and sentence.\n<\/p>\n<pre>Crl.R.P.561\/2004 &amp; 2503\/2003       2\n\n      2.          Learned      counsel  appearing  for   the\n\npetitioners         and     learned  Public Prosecutor were\n\nheard.\n\n      3.         The    argument   of  the  learned  counsel\n\n<\/pre>\n<p>appearing for the petitioner in Crl.R.P.561\/2004 is<\/p>\n<p>that petitioner affixed his signature in Ext.P2<\/p>\n<p>compounding petition only on the threat of the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner         in    Crl.R.P.2503\/2003  and  as  he  was<\/p>\n<p>threatened he appeared before the Magistrate as<\/p>\n<p>Mohammed Salim, the complainant in C.C.53\/1994 and<\/p>\n<p>in     such      circumstances      the  conviction  is  not<\/p>\n<p>sustainable.           Learned counsel argued that in any<\/p>\n<p>case leniency may be shown in the sentence as he is<\/p>\n<p>an autorikshaw driver and it was only due to the<\/p>\n<p>compulsion he committed the offences.                Learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel          appearing      for    the   petitioner  in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.2503\/2003 argued that there is no evidence<\/p>\n<p>to prove that the signature of the complainant in<\/p>\n<p>C.C.53\/1994 is forged, as            Mohammad Salim,  though<\/p>\n<p>cited as CW1 was not examined.            It was argued that<\/p>\n<p>except the sworn statement of the first accused,<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004 &amp; 2503\/2003       3<\/p>\n<p>there is no material to prove that the signature in<\/p>\n<p>the     compounding         petition  is not   that  of  the<\/p>\n<p>complainant          Mohammed    Salim  and  therefore   the<\/p>\n<p>conviction is not sustainable.\n<\/p>\n<p>      4.       Petitioner in Crl.R.P.2503\/2003 was the<\/p>\n<p>sole      accused       in   C.C.53\/1994  before  the  Chief<\/p>\n<p>Judicial Magistrate.            It was a case charge sheeted<\/p>\n<p>by the Sub Inspector of Police, Malappuram on the<\/p>\n<p>allegation         that     petitioner in  Crl.R.P.2503\/2003<\/p>\n<p>committed the offences under sections 341, 323, 337<\/p>\n<p>and 338 of Indian Penal Code.                 The de facto<\/p>\n<p>complainant         in     that  case  was  Mohammed  Salim.<\/p>\n<p>Learned counsel submitted that he was only one of<\/p>\n<p>the injured.           Whatever it be,    Ext.P2 compounding<\/p>\n<p>petition dated 30.9.1994 shows that when the case<\/p>\n<p>was called, petitioner produced Ext.P2 before the<\/p>\n<p>learned Magistrate as a compounding petition signed<\/p>\n<p>by him along with the injured Mohammed Salim.           The<\/p>\n<p>evidence        of    PW1    the  Bench  Clerk  with  Ext.P2<\/p>\n<p>establish that when the learned Magistrate got<\/p>\n<p>suspicious, while recording the sworn statement of<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004 &amp; 2503\/2003       4<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner in Crl.R.P.561\/2004 who appeared as<\/p>\n<p>the complainant in C.C.53\/1994 Mohammed Salim, it<\/p>\n<p>was verified with PW2, Assistant Public Prosecutor<\/p>\n<p>and      thereafter         a  detailed  statement  of   the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner          in     Crl.R.P.561\/2004  was   recorded.<\/p>\n<p>Ext.P2 shows that the said petitioner disclosed to<\/p>\n<p>the learned Magistrate that he is              not Mohammed<\/p>\n<p>Salim but he signed in Ext.P2 as Mohammed Salim and<\/p>\n<p>it    was     at    the     instance of  the  petitioner  in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.2503\/2003 he signed in Ext.P2 as Mohammad<\/p>\n<p>Salim and he was threatened                by the revision<\/p>\n<p>petitioner in Crl.R.P.2503\/2003, to appear before<\/p>\n<p>the learned Magistrate as the complainant Mohammad<\/p>\n<p>Salim and due to the threat           he impersonated before<\/p>\n<p>the Magistrate as Mohammad Salim.            Though learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel          appearing      for    the  petitioner   in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.2503\/2003 argued that there is no evidence<\/p>\n<p>to prove that signature of Mohammad Salim seen in<\/p>\n<p>Ext.P2 is not that of Mohammad Salim but a forged<\/p>\n<p>signature            put      by     the   petitioner    in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004,            as   Mohammad Salim   was  not<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004 &amp; 2503\/2003     5<\/p>\n<p>examined though cited as witness, on the facts and<\/p>\n<p>evidence         I      cannot  agree.     Petitioner   in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004            was examined by   the  learned<\/p>\n<p>Magistrate when Ext.P2 was presented before him and<\/p>\n<p>that sworn statement unambiguously and conclusively<\/p>\n<p>establish that the signature seen in Ext.P2 as that<\/p>\n<p>of Mohammed Salim was put by the petitioner in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004.            I find the non-examination of<\/p>\n<p>Mohammad Salim is immaterial as far as the case is<\/p>\n<p>concerned.           Learned Magistrate and the learned<\/p>\n<p>Sessions Judge appreciated the evidence in the<\/p>\n<p>proper perspective and found that petitioner in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004 impersonated himself          as Mohammad<\/p>\n<p>Salim and        signed as Mohammad Salim in Ext.P2.   The<\/p>\n<p>evidence also establish that it was the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>in Crl.R.P.2503\/2003 who made the petitioner in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004, to sign as Mohammad Salim and<\/p>\n<p>also to appear before the learned Magistrate as<\/p>\n<p>Mohammad Salim by impersonation and it is the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner in Crl.R.P.2503\/2003 who made use of<\/p>\n<p>Ext.P2 which is proved to be a forged document as<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004 &amp; 2503\/2003      6<\/p>\n<p>genuine in the judicial proceedings.                In such<\/p>\n<p>circumstances,           conviction  of  the  petitioner in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.561\/2004,           the    first  accused,  for  the<\/p>\n<p>offence under sections 205, 193, 465 and 468 of<\/p>\n<p>Indian Penal Code is perfectly legal and correct.<\/p>\n<p>So     also          conviction    of   the  petitioner  in<\/p>\n<p>Crl.R.P.2503\/2003           the   second  accused  for  the<\/p>\n<p>offences under sections 205, 193, 465, 468 and 471<\/p>\n<p>of Indian Penal Code is also perfectly legal and<\/p>\n<p>correct.\n<\/p>\n<p>      Then       the     only  question  is  regarding   the<\/p>\n<p>sentence.        As rightly found by the learned Sessions<\/p>\n<p>Judge,       the      sentence   awarded   by  the   learned<\/p>\n<p>Magistrate         cannot     be  said   to  be   excessive.<\/p>\n<p>Petitioners          had    forged  the  signature  of   the<\/p>\n<p>complainant and impersonated and attempted to make<\/p>\n<p>the Magistrate act upon the forged document as a<\/p>\n<p>compounding petition to close the case.             It is a<\/p>\n<p>very      serious matter effecting        the administration<\/p>\n<p>of criminal justice and warrants severe sentence.<\/p>\n<pre>\n\nHence I find              no reason to interfere with the\n\nCrl.R.P.561\/2004 &amp; 2503\/2003     7\n\nsentence also.\n\n      Revisions         are  dismissed.    Chief  Judicial\n\n<\/pre>\n<p>Magistrate, Manjeri is directed to execute the<\/p>\n<p>sentence.
