HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE PRAKASH GUPTA HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE NARENDRA SINGH DHADDHA Order
29/11/2021 This 2nd suspension of sentence application has been
filed by the accused appellant under Section 389 CrPC.
Learned counsel for the accused applicant submits that
sentence of co-accused Bhuru Khati @ Shakeel S/o Abdul Rauf has
already been suspended by this Court vide its order dated
31.3.2021 passed in D.B. Cr. Misc. Bail (Suspension of Sentence)
Application No. 274/2021 and the case of the accused applicant in
on better footing than that of co-accused Bhuru Khati @ Shakeel.
He further submits that the accused applicant was on bail during
trial. He has drawn the attention of the Court towards the
statement of PW-4 Saurabh Agarwal and submits that wallet was
recovered from the place of incident and not from the accused
(2 of 2) [463 2nd SOS 2021 in CRLAD-488/2018]
applicant. It is a case of circumstantial evidence and chain of
circumstantial evidence is not complete. He further submits that
the accused applicant is behind the bars since long and the
disposal of the appeal is likely to take long time, hence he may be
enlarged on bail.
On the other hand, learned PP appearing for the State
has opposed the same.
Taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of
the case and more particularly in view of the fact that sentence of
co-accused Bhuru Khati @ Shakeel S/o Abdul Rauf has already
been suspended by this Court vide its order dated 31.3.2021 and
the wallet was recovered by the police from the place of incident
and not from the accused applicant, without expressing any
opinion on the merits and demerits of the case, we are inclined to
suspend the sentence of the accused applicant.
Accordingly, this 2nd suspension of sentence application
is allowed and it is ordered that the sentence awarded to the
accused applicant Manju @ Faimuddin S/o Shri Ajimuddin by the
trial court vide judgment dated 30.10.2018 in Sessions Case No.
51/2013 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 5th January, 2022 and thereafter as
and when called upon to do so.
