Bombay HC: What is the role of Judicial appraisal by the Session Judge in cases involving the punishment to prisoners by prison authorities?

 We, therefore, direct the respondents to punctually place before the District and Sessions Judge the case papers in matters of imposition of punishment for appraisal. In case the District and Sessions Judge finds any error of law in the order of punishment or notices any serious infirmity then the same shall be immediately brought to the notice of the concerned authorities so that the purpose of placing the relevant papers before the District and Sessions Judge is served. The respondents - prison authorities shall maintain appropriate record of the same. The matters in which punishments are imposed shall be dealt with diligently and the papers thereof shall be placed for appraisal and sanction without much loss of time. {Para 20}
