The applicant was playing with the life of patients as he was involved
in illegal and unauthorized medical practice. The applicant has no
good case on merit. Hence, the sentence may not be suspended.

appears a ground to argue the revision. There are no complaints that
the applicant has misused the bail granted to him. Considering the
allegations levelled against the applicant, the sentence is liable to be
suspended and he may be granted bail on certain conditions. Hence,
the following order :
