HIGH COURT OF MADHYA PRADESH
Cr.A. No. 8173/2018
(Chunni vs. State of M.P. )
Gwalior, Dated: 31.08.2021
Heard through hybrid system of physical/virtual hearing.
Shri Vilas Tikhe, learned counsel for the appellant.
Shri Lokendra Shrivastava, learned Public Prosecutor for the
respondent/State.
This criminal appeal assails the judgment dated 25.09.2018
passed in S.T.No.212/2017 by Second Additional Session Judge, Karera
District Shivpuri whereby appellant has been convicted and sentenced
as under:-
Section Imprisonment Fine In Default
302 of IPC Life Rs.1000/- six month
Imprisonment
I.A.No.13808/2020, repeat application u/S 389 of Cr.P.C. after
rejection of earlier one which was dismissed for want of prosecution
without being considered on merits, is taken up and considered along
with the reply filed by the State.
Prosecution story found to be proved is that owing to certain past
animosity arising out of sharing of agricultural land, the rival parties
entered into argument which turned into altercation and thereafter
the appellant caused injuries by giving kick and fist blows on the chest
and by squeezing the testicles of the deceased, who died while being
taken to hospital.
02Cr.A.8173/2018
After having heard learned counsel for the rival parties, prima
facie it does not appear that the assault was made with an intention to
commit murder.
However, without expressing any opinion on the merits,
considering the period of custody which is about four years and the
absence of any antecedents, I.A. No. 13808/2020 is allowed and it is
directed that the jail sentence of appellant-Chunni will remain under
suspension subject to verification that the amount of fine has been
deposited, on his furnishing bail bond of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty
Thousand Only) with one solvent surety of the like amount to the
satisfaction of concerned CJM, for appearance of appellant before the
concerned CJM on 20th December, 2021 and on such further dates as
may be fixed by him which shall be of frequency of not less than once a
year.
In case appellant is found absent on any date fixed by concerned
CJM, then the said CJM shall be free to issue and execute warrant of
arrest for securing his presence without first referring the matter to this
Court, provided the Registry of this Court is kept informed.
C.c as per rules.
