Court awards 10 years RI to four in culpable homicide case 9/6/2019 10:13:01 PM Early Times Report JAMMU, Sept 6:2nd Additional Sessions Judge Jammu Virender Singh Bhou today awarded 10 years RI to Kunwarpal Singh, Koushal Singh, Shubinder Singh and Gagandeep Singh facing trial in murder of Sahil Khajuria case. 2nd Additional Sessions Judge Jammu Virender Singh Bhou after hearing both the sides in length observed that it is not only the duty of the Court but social and legal obligations are clearly enjoined upon it to impose adequate punishment according to law while taking into consideration not only the crime, but also the criminal. Furthermore, deterrence and reformation are primarily social goals, which make deprivation of life and liberty reasonable as penal panacea. The case law referred to by learned counsel for convicts is applicable to the fact situation of this case. The convicts are, therefore, sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for 10 years for the commission of offence under section 304 Par-I RPC and pay a fine of Rs 50,000 each. In case of default of payment of fine the convicts/convict, they/he shall undergo further simple imprisonment for six months. Further, all the convicts are sentenced to undergo simple imprisonment for one month and pay a fine of Rs 500 each for commission of offence under section 341 RPC. In default of payment of fine by convicts/convict they/he shall further undergo simple imprisonment for 15 days. The convicts, namely, Kunwar Pal Singh and Koushal Singh are further sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for three years and pay a fine of Rs 10,000 for commission of offence under section 4/27 Arms Act. In case of default of payment of fine the convicts/convict, they/he shall undergo further simple imprisonment for three months.
