As I understand from your case, you might not have come to know, that other sections must also be there out of which one section would contain this punishment. Else where any person is found guilty under any section, then maximum punishment is not decided by judge but by the law.

 

If you are sure that there was no other section in this case, then you can appeal to High Court due to fundamental error in judgement sentence.
