Judgment : CRL.R.C.M.P.NO.3061 OF 2014: Petition under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. praying that in the circumstances stated therein, the high Court may be pleased to dispense with the filing of the certified copy of the Judgment, dated 17/04/2013, passed in C.C.No.164 of 2009, on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Udayagiri. CRL.R.C.M.P.NO.3139 OF 2014: Petition under Section 320 read with Section 482 of Cr.P.C. praying that in the circumstances stated in the affidavit filed in support thereof, the High Court may be pleased to grant permission to file the present petition to compound the offence in the present Crl.RC by taking into consideration the affidavit of the defacto complainant.) This revision, under Sections 397 and 401 of Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (for short, Cr.P.C.), is filed by the petitioner against the judgment, dated 08/09/2014, in Crl.A.No.67 of 2013 on the file of IV Additional District and Sessions Judge, Nellore, whereby and whereunder the learned Sessions Judge confirmed the conviction and sentence passed in C.C. 164 of 2009 on the file of Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Udayagiri. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. The revision petitioner is A.1 and the 2nd Respondent is the de facto complainant of the police case, covered by C.C. No. 164 of 2009, registered for the offence punishable under Section 324 of Indian Penal code, 1860 (for short, I.P.C.), are present. The 1st respondent is the State represented by the Public Prosecutor. The revision petitioner – A.1 is convicted and sentenced to undergo simple imprisonment for one year and to pay fine of Rs.1,000/- and the same was confirmed by the Appellate Court. The present revision is impugning the same. Further with the revision both parties, i.e. revision petitioner and de facto complainant, appeared to compound with the application under Section 320(1) Cr.P.C. seeking permission of the Court to compound the offence. Section 324 I.P.C. is not covered to compound under Section 320(1) Cr.P.C. without permission of the Court, by the de facto complainant. Even as per Section 320(2) of Cr.P.C., with permission of Court it is covered for compounding. It is important to note that the offence under Section 325 of I.P.C., grievous hurt is provided for compounding whereas the lesser offence of voluntary causing simple hurt under Section 324 of I.P.C. is not. Even as per Section 320(2) of Cr.P.C., with permission of Court it is covered for compounding. It is important to note that the offence under Section 325 of I.P.C., grievous hurt is provided for compounding whereas the lesser offence of voluntary causing simple hurt under Section 324 of I.P.C. is not. In the wording no doubt it is mentioned as if Section 325 of I.P.C. instead Section 326 Cr.P.C. having mentioned voluntary causing grievous hurt (Section 326 I.P.C.). Once the voluntary causing grievous hurt, it is mistakenly mentioned for Section 326 I.P.C. as if Section 325 of I.P.C. which is a more serious offence is with permission of the Court provided as compoundable; equally for compounding the lesser offence under section 324 of I.P.C. The Apex Court though not referred the same by referring to Section 320 Cr.P.C. read with 324 I.P.C. permitted such compounding vide decision Avinash shetty v. State of Karnataka (2006) 1 SCC (Crl) 316. It is suffice there from to hold that Section 324 I.P.C. offence with permission of the Court can be compounded by the victim (injured). Accordingly at the admission stage, from the de facto complainant and the accused come forward for compounding permission is accorded and the offence under Section 324 of I.P.C. is compounded and the sentence passed by the trial court and confirmed by the lower appellate court is set aside and by virtue of the compounding, the revision petitioner is acquitted. Accordingly, the revision is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand closed.
