S.323, IPC - 6 Months' Imprisonment Not Very High ; SC Upholds Conviction
In has clearly emerged from an important case citation [2016] GCtR 2589 (SC), that there is nothing wrong in passing a sentence of 6 months' imprisonment of a person who has been convicted in respect of offence under S.323 of Indian Penal Code.
Six months' imprisonment for an offence relatable to S.323, IPC can hardly be called as extreme punishment. Merely because the accused has made a prayer to reduce the term of his imprisonment would certainly not mean that his sentence has to be invariably reduced.
