Judgment ORDER ' Learned counsel for the appellant states that more than twenty two years sentence has been undergone calculating the substantive sentence served and the commission earned. He adds that benefit of section 382-B, Cr.P.C. Has not been allowed perhaps due to inadvertence. We have gone through the judgment of the High Court. There is no mention of section 382-B, Cr.P.C. In the judgment and as such it cannot be said benefit of said section has been denied. The benefit of section 382-B, Cr.P.C. Should have been allowed to the appellant. We, therefore, grant benefit of section 382-B of Cr.P.C. To the appellant and dispose of the appeal accordingly.
