RESPONDENT
ORDER
Leave granted. We had issued notice in this matter confined only to the question of sentence.
We see from the record that the appellant has undergone 13 months of the sentence imposed on him for offences punishable under Section 325 of the Indian Penal Code.
In view of the above, facts, we feel that the ends of justice would be met if the sentence is reduced to that already undergone by him. With this modification in the sentence, the appeal stands dismissed. The appellant shall be released forthwith if not required in connection with any other case.
