Heard on I.A.No. 7832/2023, which is an application filed under Section

The present petitioner has been convicted for offence punishable under Section 409 of the IPC and sentenced to undergo 03 years RI with fine of Rs.10,000/-with default stipulation by judgment dated 22.7.2022 passed by JMFC, Sitamau, District-Mandsaur (MP) in Criminal Case No.02/2004. The aforesaid judgment has been affirmed by learned Sessions Judge, Mandsaur, District-Mandsaur (MP) in Criminal Appeal No.6437/2022 vide judgment dated 15.05.2023.

Counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the entire amount of

defalcation has already been deposited by the petitioner. Hence, counsel for the petitioner prays for suspension of jail sentence. Considering the fact that the entire amount of defalcation has already been paid by the petitioner, I am inclined to allow the application for suspension of jail sentence and release him on bail. Accordingly, without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, IA No.7832/2023, application for suspension of jail sentence filed on behalf of petitioner is allowed.
