Heard on admission.

Appeal is admitted for hearing.

Record of Court below be requisitioned.

Heard on I.A.No. 26446/2023 (first application), filed by the appellants under Section 389(1) of the Cr.P.C. for suspension of sentence and grant of bail.

Appellant has been convicted vide impugned judgment dated 23.08.2023 passed by learned 1st Sessions Judge, Bijawar District- Chattarpur (M.P.) in S.T. No.13/2019 under Section 325/34 of IPC R.I. for two years with fine of Rs 3000/-.

Learned counsel for the appellant submits that the trial Court has not

properly appreciated the evidence in its proper perspective and committed grave error in convicting the appellant for aforesaid offence. Custodial sentence of appellant has already suspended by trial Court since 24/11/2023. There are fair chances of success of this appeal and final hearing of same will take considerable time, therefore, if remaining custodial sentence has not been suspended, then the appeal filed by appellant may turn infructuous. Under these circumstances, learned counsel for appellant prays for suspension of jail sentence and release of the appellant on bail till the final disposal of the appeal.
