Counsel for the applicants submitted that no independent witnesses have supported the prosecution story and that there is contradiction in the statements of the witnesses under section 161 CrPC. It is further submitted by him that looking to the sentence of R.I for one year imposed by the trial court, application of applicants for suspension of sentence may be considered and their sentence may be suspended.
