The courts have evolved certain principles: twin objective of the sentencing policy is deterrence and correction. What sentence would meet the ends of justice depends on the facts and circumstances of each case and the court must keep in mind the gravity of the crime, motive for the crime, nature of the offence and all other attendant circumstances." Haripada Das (Supra) "...considering the fact that the respondent had already undergone detention for some period and the case is pending for a pretty long time for which he had suffered both financial hardship and mental agony and also considering the fact that he had been released on bail as far back as on 17-1-1986, we feel that the ends of justice will be met in the facts of the case if the sentence is reduced to the period already undergone..." ekuuh; loksZPp U;k;ky; ds mi;qZDr U;kf;d fofuf'p;ksa esa izfrikfnr fl)kUr ,oa orZeku izdj.k ds rF;ksa o ifjfLFkfr;ksa dks n`f"Vxr j[krs gq, fuxjkdkj&vfHk;qDr dks fn;s x;s vf/kdre ,d o"kZ ds dkjkokl dks ?kVkrs gq, mlds [2025:RJ-JP:19295] (4 of 4) [CRLR-314/2005] LFkku ij mls vc rd Hkqxrh gqbZ ltk ij NksM+k tkuk U;k; ds fgr esa i;kZIr vkSj U;k;ksfpr izrhr gksrk gSA ifj.kker% fuxjkdkj&vfHk;qDr dh vksj ls izLrqr ;g iqujh{k.k ;kfpdk nks"kfl)h dh gn rd fujLr dh tkrh gSA n.Mkns'k ds fcUnq ij Lohdkj dh tkrh gS ,oa fopkj.k U;k;ky; rFkk vihyh; U;k;ky; }kjk ikfjr n.Mkns'k dks mikUrfjr@la'kksf/kr djrs gq, ,d o"kZ ds lk/kkj.k dkjkokl ds LFkku ij fuxjkuhdkj&vfHk;qDr dks Hkqxrh gqbZ ltk ls nf.Mr fd;k tkrk gSA fo}ku fopkj.k U;k;ky; }kjk vf/kjksfir vFkZn.M dh jkf'k ,oa vne vnk;xh vFkZn.M dh ltk ;Fkkor jgsxhA rnuqlkj ;g iqujh{k.k ;kfpdk fuLrkfjr dh tkrh gSA fu.kZ; dh izfr ds lkFk v/khuLFk U;k;ky; dk vfHkys[k fopkj.k U;k;ky; dks vfoyEc izsf"kr fd;k tkosA (SHUBHA MEHTA),J VISHAL SHARMA /04
