The trial Court believed the evidence and held the applicants guilty of the offences charged with and convicted and sentenced them as stated above. Aggrived by the aforesaid judgment the applicants preferred their appeal before the Sessions Judge, Bareily who after going through the record dismissed the appeal upholding the conviction and sentence of the applicants as awarded by the trial Court. The applicants have come up before this Court against their conviction and sentence by filing the present revision.
(3.) THE learned counsel for the ap plicants could not point out any illegality or infirmity in the judgments and orders passed by the courts below. In the last the learned counsel for the applicants submitted on the point of quantum of the sentence awarded by the trial Court and also affirmed by the Sessions Judge. He submitted that the applicants had been convicted and sentenced for a trifling incidence which took place in the month of May, 1982. He also drew the attention of the Court towards the injuries sustained by the injured persons. In view of the location and dimension of the injuries the injured per sons did not sustain any substantial injury and the injuries sustained by them are only of very trifling nature and it would not be proper to send the applicants behind the bars after such a long time. He, therefore, prayed that the sentence of the applicants may be reduced to the period already under gone.;
