ORDER Criminal Appeal No. 263/2000; SLP (Crl.) No. 300/2000 Delay condoned. 2. Leave granted. 3. In respect of certain offences arising under Sections 147, 323/149, 325/149 and 304 Part-II read with Section 149, IPC sentencing the Appellants to suffer two years rigorous imprisonment under Section 147 IPC, one year s rigorous imprisonment under Section 325/149 IPC and seven year s rigorous imprisonment under Section 304 Part II read with Section 149 IPC in each of these cases, it was appealed to the High Court. The High Court ultimately allowed the same and set aside the conviction in so far as the conviction under Section 304 Part II is concerned. Then in respect of offences arising under Section 147, 323/149 and 325/149 IPC the conviction was confirmed and sentences awarded were also upheld. 4. Now during the pendency of this appeal both the assailants and the victims are stated to have entered into a compromise and in the joint application made by them, it is stated that they are closely related to each other and they are likely to be put into serious difficulties if the conviction ordered by the High Court is maintained; that the accused and the injured party both requested that this Court may condone the offences stated to have been committed by the Appellants. In the facts and circumstances of this case, the appeal is allowed on the basis of the statement made in the joint application filed by the parties and the conviction made under Sections 147, 323/149 and 325/149 IPC is set aside. If the Appellants are in jail, they shall be released at once. 5. (SLP (Crl.) ..... /2000, CC (Crl.) 1206/2000). Delay condoned. 6. The petition is dismissed in view of the order in Criminal Appeal No. 263/2000 (Arising out of SLP (Crl.) No. 300/2000). (C.R.)
