Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court modified the Delhi High Court's order regarding the appellant's sentences under Sections 392 and 397 IPC, holding that the discretion under Section 427 of the Code of Criminal Procedure allows for sentences to run concurrently. The Court found that the High Court's directive for the sentences to commence only after the conclusion of another appeal was not warranted. Consequently, the Court ordered that all sentences in both appeals shall run concurrently, thereby allowing for a reduction in the total time served.
