Order No. 27.03.2025

I.A. No.448 of 2025

01. This matter is taken up through Hybrid arrangement (video conferencing/physical mode).

Heard Mr. S.C. Rath, learned counsel for the appellant- petitioner and Miss Suvalaxmi Devi, learned Additional Standing Counsel for the State.

This is an application for condonation of delay in preferring the appeal against the impugned judgment and order of conviction.

The Stamp Reporter has pointed out that there is a delay of forty six days in filing this CRLA.

After going through the averments taken in the interim application and on hearing the learned counsel for both the

parties, since it is a case where the petitioner has been sentenced to life imprisonment, we are inclined to condone the delay in filing the CRLA.

Accordingly, the delay is condoned. I.A. is disposed of.
