1The petitioner is a convicted accused in Sessions Case
No.111 of 2004 decided on 01/03/2006 by the learned 5th Adhoc
Additional Sessions Judge, Kolhapur. He is found guilty of offence
punishable under Sections 325 and 387 of the Indian Penal Code
and accordingly, he is sentenced to suffer rigorous imprisonment
for three years apart from a direction to pay fine of Rs.5,000/- and
in default to undergo simple imprisonment for four months on
each count. The petitioner preferred Criminal Appeal bearing
No.23 of 2006 before the learned Sessions Judge, Kolhapur.
However, it was held that the appeal as framed and filed is not
maintainable in view of the provisions of Section 374(2) of the
Code of Criminal Procedure.
