Heard on I.A.No.10417/2023, which is first application under Section 389(1) of Cr.P.C for suspension of sentence and grant of bail.
The appellant has been convicted for the offences punishable under

imposed by this Court. Hence, it is prayed that the application for suspension of sentence may be considered.
On the other hand, learned counsel for the State has opposed the application and prays for its rejection.

Accordingly, the aforesaid I.A. stands allowed and disposed of.
