Naik, J., addressed a Criminal Revision Application challenging the order passed by learned Special Judge for rejecting the application to \u2018call for the report\u2019 of probation officer under Section 4(1)(2) of Probation of Offenders Act, 1958, by giving a clear vision in reference to the said provision of the Act and its essentiality in reference to a case to case dependency.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the present case, the facts state that the applicant was a field officer at \u2018Apnalaya Sanstha\u2019 and was accused of molestation and outraging the modesty of a child\/victim who used to attend the classes conducted under Sanstha. For the said act, the applicant accused was punishable under Section 354 A of Indian Penal Code and Section 8 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act. The Trial Court rejected the application stating that it is for the Court to consider the circumstances of the case and the nature of offence as to when the benefit of the said provisions can be given to the accused.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Therefore, the Hon\u2019ble High Court found no infirmity in the order of rejection stated above and dismissed the Criminal Revision Application, by placing its view that the court is always required to apply its mind to the requirements for exercising powers as contemplated under Section 4 of the Probation of Offender\u2019s Act.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On analysing the stated facts and observing that the accused being a 40 year old\u00a0 man had deliberately committed the said act, Court stated that if PW2 was the victim today, someone else would be tomorrow, which lead the Court to the contention of \u2018calling for reports\u2019 not mandatory in every case as been claimed by the applicant, otherwise every other accused would demand so. In accordance to the stated\u00a0 facts, Court declared that \u2018<em>Judicial attitude ought to have been against allowing the benefit of probation to him, who was otherwise an educated and experienced person in life.\u2019 <\/em>Further, Court declared that there is no merit in the application and therefore, it stands dismissed.
