The Assessing Officer has conducted a detailed enquiry with regard to the issue whether the respondent entered into the premises of one A.N.Dyaneswaran and the respondent claim that the said money belongs to one Seethalakshmi and concluded that the said money belongs to one Seethalakshmi. Hence, Appellate Court had rightly acquitted the respondent and the same does not require interference.
10. In view of the above the order passed by the Learned Principal Sessions Court at Chennai in Crl.A.No.167 of 2014 is confirmed and this Criminal Appeal stands dismissed.
