Petition praying that in the circumstances stated therein and in the petition filed therewith the High Court will be pleased to suspend the operation of the sentence imposed upon the Petitioner / Revision Petitioner/ Accused by the Judicial Magistrate No. 2 Kulithalai in Calender Case No. 114 of 2005 dated 11.09.2014 and modified by the Mahalir Neethi Mandram (fast Track Mahila Court) Karur in Criminal Appeal No. 40 of 2014 dated 09.02.2016 till the disposal of the Criminal Revision case.

Order : This petition coming on for orders upon perusing the petition filed in support thereof and upon hearing the arguments of M/S K.SURESH, Advocate for the petitioner and court made the following order:-

¶9

The revision petitioner challenges the legality and propriety of the conviction and sentence recorded by the trial Court as well as the appellate Court.

¶10

2.The revision petitioner is the accused in a cheque bouncing case in C.C.No.114 of 2005. The learned Judicial Magistrate No.II, Kulithalai convicted and sentenced him to 3 months S.I.

¶11

3.The learned Additional Sessions Judge, Mahila Fast Track Court, Karur confirmed the conviction but modified the sentence to 1 month S.I. in Criminal Appeal No.40 of 2014. He has paid the fine amount.

¶12

4.The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that there are very many legal infirmities in the conviction recorded by the trial Court and by the appellate Court and they are required to be revised.

¶13

5.In the facts and circumstances, perusing the impugned judgments and the materials on record, I am of the view that certain eminently arguable points are involved in this Criminal Revision. They are required to be examined in detail at the main criminal revision. It will take some time for the disposal of this Criminal revision. Further, the petitioner was on bail in the trial Court. I see primafacie case. I am inclined to grant revision bail to the https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ petitioner.

¶14

6.In view of the above, ordered as under:

¶15

(1) Revision bail granted.

¶16
