Learned counsel for the appellant submits that as per the medical evidence, deceased Jeevan died because of head injury caused by Ghanshyam. This appellant has caused injury to deceased on his hand which has caused fracture. He is in jail last seven years. There was no intention to kill the deceased. The dispute suddenly arose on petty issue. He has no criminal past. He therefore, prays for suspension of jail sentence of appellant and to release him on bail.
On the other hand, learned Govt. Advocate opposes the prayer and prays for rejection of the application.
I n view of the above facts and circumstances of the case in totality,
without commenting anything on the merits of the case, we deem it proper to suspend the jail sentence of this appellant no.2 Rupesh.
Accordingly, I.A. No. 15074/2022 is allowed and it stands closed. It is directed that subject to deposit of fine amount with the trial Court, if not already deposited, and on furnishing personal bond by the appellant No.2 Rupesh in the sum of Rs.50,000/- (Fifty Thousand only) with one solvent surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of learned trial Court for his appearance before the Registry of this Court on 11.12.2023 and on all such subsequent dates, which are fixed in this behalf, during pendency of this appeal the execution of custodial part of the jail sentence of the appellant No.2 Rupesh shall remain suspended till final disposal of this appeal.
