Judgment

K. JAYACHANDRA REDDY, J.:- Amrutlal Someshwar Joshi, the petitioner in this review petition is the appellant in Criminal Appeal No. 87/94 which has been dismissed by us on 10-8-94. The appellant has been convicted by the trial Court under Section 302, I.P.C. and sentenced to death. The same has been confirmed by the High Court. We heard Criminal Appeal No. 87/94 filed by him in this Court at length and ultimately dismissed the same holding that the appellant killed three persons including a child aged about three years in a brutal and diabolical manner with a view to commit robbery. We also held that the motive was heinous and the crime committed was a cold-blooded, brutal and diabolical one and that his case fell within the category of rarest of rare cases. Accordingly we confirmed the judgments of the courts below awarding death sentence to the petitioner herein. Hence the present Review Petition has been filed seeking review of our judgment dated 10-8-94 in Criminal Appeal No. 87/94.

2. In the meanwhile a separate petition dated 22-8-94 to review the judgment in Criminal Appeal No. 87/ 94 sent by the convicted accused from jail is received which is not separately numbered
