Rattiram & Ors vs State Of M.P.Tr.Insp.Of Police on 17 February, 2012
29. Criminal jurisprudence with the
passage of time has laid emphasis on
victimology, which fundamentally is a
perception of a trial from the viewpoint of the
criminal as well as the victim. Both are viewed
in the social context and, thus, victim's rights
have to be equally protected [Rattiram v. State
of M.P. (2012) 4 SCC 516].
Gopal Singh vs State Of Uttarakhand on 8 February, 2013
It would be useful
to rely on the observations of this Court
in Gopal Singh v. State of Uttarakhand
[(2013) 7 SCC 545] that just punishment is
the collective cry of the society and while
collective cry has to be kept uppermost in
mind, simultaneously the principle of
proportionality between the crime and
punishment cannot be totally brushed aside.
Thus, the principle of just punishment is the
bedrock of sentencing in respect of a criminal
offence. No doubt there cannot be a
straitjacket formula nor a solvable theory in
mathematical exactitude. An offender cannot
be allowed to be treated with leniency solely
on the ground of discretion vested in a court.
Alister Anthony Pareira vs State Of Maharashtra on 12 January, 2012
Similarly, in Alister Anthony Pareira v.
State of Maharashtra [AIR 2012 SC 3802],
the twin objective of the sentencing policy to
be kept in mind was emphasised as deterrence
and correction and, thus, principle of
proportionality in sentencing a convict were
held to be well entrenched in the criminal
jurisprudence.
