G.RAMESH vs STATE OF A.P. — Crl.A. No. 1372/2011

Summary of Criminal Appeal No. 1372/2011 - G. Ramesh v. State of A.P. The Supreme Court heard G. Ramesh's appeal challenging his conviction under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instrument Act, wherein he was sentenced to one year rigorous imprisonment and ordered to pay compensation of Rs. 1,30,000. The Court granted leave to appeal and, considering that the parties had filed a compromise memo dated 21.10.2010, allowed compounding of the offence under Section 320 Cr.P.C. Consequently, the Court set aside the conviction and sentencing orders passed by the trial court, Principal Sessions Judge, and High Court, and acquitted the appellant with discharge of bail bonds.
