08.07.2011 These are the petitions under Section 482 Cr.

ORDER
of the
Rajasthan High Court titled Amanreer Singh Vs. State of
Rajasthan 2O10 (3) RCR 556 (Criminal).
I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the judgment. The petitioner has been sentenced to RI of one year and has been directed to pay compensation to the tune of tl,50,000/-.
Learned Additional Sessions Judge while suspending the sentence has imposed a condition for payment of 50% of the amount of compensation which comes out to t75,000/-. The amount of t75,O0O/- in my opinion cannot be said to be an illegal condition for a precondition for release on bail. Reliance on judgment of the
Rajasthan High Court in this regard is not correct. That was a case where the amount of compensation which was directed to be paid by the
Court was {15 lakhs and the learned Sessions Judge directed the petitioner to deposit 50 % of the compensation amount which came l
3.
'O l to nearly t7.5 lakhs. It was in this context that the Rajasthan
High Court had held that the condition which was imposed by the
Iearned Sessions Judge was onerous while in the present case the cheque and the compensation amount is very meager amount and only 50% of the said amount has been directed to be deposited which comes to Rs. 75,OOO|-, therefore no help can be withdrawn from the said judgment, I feel that the order of the Sessions Judge is quite valid and legal. There is no merit in the petitions and the same are dismissed.
