1. Heard on application for suspension of sentence.
2. The appellant has filed the appeal along with
application for suspension of sentence.

dated 03.03.2021 and 26.07.2021 passed by court of Session
Judge, Sawai Madhopur (trial court) in Session Case No. 51/2019
by which the appellant has been convicted for offence/s under
Sections 376(2)(n), 354D, 354A(i) of IPC and sentenced to
maximum term of ten years imprisonment.
4. It has been submitted by learned counsel for the
appellant that appellant has been falsely implicated in the case.
(2 of 3) [SOSA-812/2021]
Statements of PW-1-Prosecutrix does not inspire confidence as it
suffers from material contradictions and infirmities. Prosecurtix
has stated in her examination that she did not tell about the
incident to any person even her family members. In her cross-
examination, she has stated that if the appellant had not uploaded
her sister's photo on the facebook, then, she would not have
lodged this First Information Report. Counsel further submitted
that she did not tell anyone that the appellant commited rape
upon her. PW-5-Sister of prosecutrix has turned hostile and she
has not supported the prosecution version. Similarly, PW-6-
Brother of the prosecutrix has also resiled from his statements
(Ex-P10) and has stated that parties have entered into a
compromise and her sister (proseuctrix) did not inform him about
the offence committed by the appellant against her. During trial,
appellant was on bail and now, he is in custody. There are no
criminal antecedents against the petitioner. He has already served
about one year of sentence. Hearing of the appeal may take
considerable time.
5. Learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the application
for suspension of sentence.
6. Heard learned counsel for the parties and scanned the
evidence available on record.
7. Taking into consideration the submissions of learned
counsel for the parties, evidence available on record and overall
facts and circumstances of the case but without commenting upon
merits of the case, this Court deems just and proper to allow the
application for suspension of sentence.
(3 of 3) [SOSA-812/2021]
8. Accordingly, the application for suspension of sentence
is allowed and it is ordered that the sentence awarded to accused-
appellant Dilkhush S/o Ramsingh @ Pappu shall remain suspended
till disposal of this criminal appeal and he shall be released on bail
provided the appellant furnishes a personal bond of Rs. 1,00,000/-
(One Lakh) and two sureties of Rs.50,000/- (Fifty Thousand) each
to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court for his appearance in
this Court on 17.01.2022 and as and when called upon to do so.
