S.B. Criminal Appeal No. 1641/2020
Though, the matter pertains to jurisdiction of Single Bench
but today, it is listed in Division Bench as being a connected
matter. At the request of learned counsel for the appellant, the
matter is heard by the Division Bench.
This appeal preferred on behalf of the appellant - Babli is
delayed by 260 days. The accused is in custody from 13.12.2018.
Thus, we deem it fit to exercise suo moto powers and condone the
delay occasioned in filing the appeal.
The application (CMCR No. 519/2020) is, accordingly,
allowed.
The appeal is admitted.
Admit.
Issue notice.
Learned Public Prosecutor accepts notice on behalf of
respondent-State. Hence, notice need not be issued.

Heard learned counsel for the appellant and learned Public
Prosecutor on application for SOS. Perused the impugned
judgment and the material available on record.
This application for SOS has been filed on behalf of the
accused-appellant, who has been convicted and sentenced as
below vide judgment dated 27.11.2019 passed by the Additional
Sessions Judge No. 4, Sikar in Sessions Case No. 39/2019 :-

years. Hearing of the appeal is likely to consume time.
In this background, we deem it proper to suspend the
sentences awarded to the accused-appellant during pendency of
the appeal.

sentences filed under Section 389 Cr.P.C. is allowed and it is
ordered that the sentences passed by the learned Additional

wife of Nanu Ram, shall remain suspended till final disposal of
