Mohan v. The Inspector Of Police

2022-12-23Honourable Mrs Justice T.V.Thamilselvi3 pages

T.V.THAMILSELVI, J.

This matter was taken up for hearing under the caption "For Clarification" today.

2. Earlier, this Court by an order dated 23.12.2022 granted bail to the petitioner and also issued direction. However, in para-7 of the order, instead of giving direction to the Social Defence Department to grant interim compensation as per the Victim Compensation Scheme, a direction was given to the concerned Sessions Judge. Hence, the matter is listed today.

3. In the said circumstances, paragraph-7 of the order is clarified as follows:

In Para 7 at Page 5 "7. On considering the pathetic condition of the victim, this Court recommends that it is a fit case to refer as per 357(A) (1)

(2) and (6) of Cr.P.C. The Sessions Judge, Special Court for Exclusive Trial of Cases under POCSO Act, Villupuram is hereby directed to pass appropriate orders to the Social Defence 1/3

Department for disbursing the compensation amount of Rs.75,000/- [(Rupees Seventy Five Thousand Only)] as interim compensation to the victim girl, in the manner known to law within a period of 4 weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this order. "

4. Registry is directed to incorporate above correction in the Order of this Court in Crl.O.P.No. 32268 of 2022 dated 23.12.2022 and issue fresh order copy to the petitioner.
