JUDGMENT

When the matter was taken up on earlier occasions, there was no representation for the appellant . By order dated 2/9/2015, instructions were called from the Additional Sessions Judge I, Thiruvananthapuram as to whether the judgment of conviction in S.C.No.812/2009 has been executed. A report was received from the Additional District Court enclosing a reply of the Superintendent of Central Jail, Thiruvananthapuram informing that the appellant had undergone the sentence and after being granted remission and set off, he was released from the jail on 30/1/2014. Consequently by order of this Court dated 14th September,2015, the appellant was directed to be intimated to inform as to whether he proposes to pursue the appeal and if so, whether he requires the assistance of a counsel on State brief. Notice sent by speed post has been delivered and acknowledgment card received. No appearance today also.

Crl.A.No.737/2011 Hence, it is evident that the appellant is not interested in prosecuting the matter. No purpose will be served by retaining this appeal. Hence, dismissed.
