An agreement drawn between the parties too is placed on record. 3. Having considered the facts mentioned above, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this revision petition by maintaining the conviction but reducing the sentence for the period already undergone by the petitioner in prison with a fine of Rs. 5,000/- that is to be deposited with the State Treasury, if not already deposited. The bail bonds and sureties furnished by the petitioner stands discharged.Order accordingly. *******
