SAT NARAIN Vs. REX
LAWS(ALL)-1948-9-14
HIGH COURT OF ALLAHABAD
Decided on September 27,1948

SAT NARAIN Appellant
VERSUS
REX Respondents

JUDGEMENT

BIND BASNI PRASAD, J. - (1.) WHEN the complainant himself considers this compensation as adequate I do not think it was proper for the learned Sessions Judge to hold it was insufficient. A compromise in a case like this will conduce to amicable relationship between the parties and the dispute will be better settled by accepting the compromise rather than by inflicting a punishment upon the accused. The accused is genuinely sorry for what was done and has paid pecuniary compensation to the complainant for his mistakes. In these circumstances I grant permission for compounding the case and I accept the compromise.
(2.) THE appeal is allowed. The conviction and sentence are set aside and the appellant is acquitted. Appeal allowed.;
