alleging that he along with Parmal Singh were going by motorcycle
No. MP08/ML1710, when they reached Mavan Naisarai Road, infront
of them one blue colour Holand Tractor which was driven by
appellant Deepak Jat rash negligently hit his motorcycle, due to which
he and Parmal Singh fell down and got injured. Afterwards, accused
Neeraj by abusing them told to kill them, due to which accused Satish
Jat assaulted Parmal by farsa which hit on his thigh and blood was
oozing out and he got injuries on different parts of his body.
Thereafter, all of them went away by abusing filthy language.
Afterward, Gyan Singh and two others came there and they took them
to hospital. On his report, a crime under Sections 279, 337, 323, 294,
506-B,34 of IPC bearing Crime No.0/2015 was recorded and Parmal
Singh was sent for medical examination. During treatment he died.
Postmortem was conducted and during postmortem, contusion was
found on his body. As per postmortem, he died due to hemorrhage.
Appellant and others were arrested. After investigation, charge sheet
has been filed. After trial appellant and Neeraj were convicted under
sections 302 r/w 120-B, 323, 506-II, 34 of IPC and accused Ramraja
and Kashmir Singh @ Kakshmira were acquitted.
From the side of appellant-accused it was argued that it was a
case of accident. No overt act was established against appellant 03Cr.A.6293/2020
Deepak Jat. He is in custody from the date of judgment, i.e.,
7.12.2020. During trial he was in custody from 19.6.2015 to
4.9.2015. Under these circumstances, he prays for suspension of
sentence and grant of bail.
Learned counsel for the State opposed the application and
prayed for its rejection by contending that on the basis of the
allegations and the material available on record, no case for grant of bail
is made out.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, looking to
the Dehati Nalishi, nature of offence, period of custody, but without
commenting anything on the merits of the case, IA.No.2314/2022 is
allowed and it is directed that jail sentence of appellant-Deepak Jat
will remain under suspension subject to verification that the amount
of fine has been deposited, on appellant's furnishing bail bond of
Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand Only) with one solvent surety
of the like amount to the satisfaction of concerned Trial Court for his
appearance before the Principal Registrar of this Court on 13th June,
2022 and thereafter on such further dates as may be fixed by the
office of this Court in this regard till disposal of the appeal.
