                                                           Vs

                                               State of Uttar Pradesh

                                        Criminal Appeal No. 465 of 1981

                                         (Syed M. Fazal Ali, R.B. Misra)

                                                      24.04.1981

                                                        ORDER

1. After hearing counsel for the parties, we find that it was not a case under Section 307, IPC at all.
We, therefore, covert the conviction of appellant Ram Shanker from one under Section 307, IPC to
that under Sections 325/34, IPC. An application has been made by both the parties that the offence
may be compounded. In the circumstances, therefore, so far as the offence under Sections 325/34,
IPC is concerned, we sanction the compounding of the offence as the parties have settled their
differences and acquit Ram Shanker of the charges framed against him. The offence under Section
323, IPC is compoundable without permission of the Court, and as Sheo Shanker and Nand Kumar
have compounded the offence, they are acquitted of the charges framed against them.
