Order
21/01/2021
This suspension of sentence application has been filed
by the accused appellant under Section 389 CrPC.
Learned counsel for the appellant submits that
appellant was on bail during trial. He further submits that from the
cross-examination of prosecutrix PW-1 Pooja Kanwar it is apparent
that she lodged the report on the purported ground that the
accused appellant abused her and her mother. She admitted that
physical relations were made with her consent. Neither forceful
intercourse took place with her nor she was in intoxication. She
further admitted that accused appellant promised her to bring an
I-phone on her birthday, but he did not give her. Learned counsel
(2 of 2) [1217 SOS 2020 in CRLAD-265/2020]
for the appellant further submits that the accused appellant was
20 years of age and she was a student of B.A. Ist year at the time
of alleged incident. He has drawn the attention of the court
towards the statement of DW-1 Rajjak Arman and submits that in-
fact prosecutrix is a black-mailer and extorts money by
blackmailing the young boys. The accused appellant has been
falsely implicated in this case, hence sentence awarded to the
accused appellant by the court below is required to be suspended.
On the other hand, learned PP appearing for the State
has opposed the same.
Having regard to the submissions made by learned
counsel for the parties and taking into consideration the material
on record, but without expressing any opinion on the merits and
demerits of the case, we are inclined to suspend the sentence of
the accused appellant.
Accordingly, this suspension of sentence application is
allowed and it is ordered that the sentence awarded to the
accused appellant Abid Hussain S/o Shri Hussain Mohammed, by
the trial court vide judgment dated 23.10.2020 in Sessions Case
No. 17/2019 shall remain suspended during the pendancy of the
appeal, provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.
1,00,000/- with two sureties in the sum of Rs. 50,000/- each to
the satisfaction of the trial court with the stipulation that he shall
appear before this Court on 22.2.2021 and thereafter as and when
called upon to do so.
