22/10/2021
Heard on application for suspension of sentence.
The petitioner has filed the revision petition along with
application for suspension of sentence.
This revision petition has been preferred against the
judgment dated 07.09.2021 passed by the court of Additional
District and Sessions Judge No.1, Alwar (the Appellate Court) in
Criminal Appeal No.60/2014(CIS No.953/14), affirming the order
dated 15.10.2014 passed by Additional Senior Civil Judge and
(2 of 3) [CRLR-947/2021]
Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate No.2, Alwar (the trial court) in
Criminal Case No.23/281/2012, by which the petitioner has been
convicted for offence/s under Section 420 of IPC and sentenced to
maximum term of three years imprisonment.
It has been submitted on behalf of learned counsel for the
petitioner that the petitioner has been acquitted under Section
406 of IPC and he has been convicted under Section 420 of IPC
and sentenced to maximum term of three years of imprisonment.
The matter is of civil in nature. Civil suit is also pending. As per
certificate under Rule 311(3) of the Rajasthan High Court Rules,
the petitioner was on bail during trial as well as during pendency
of appeal and now, he is in judicial custody since 07.09.2021.
Decision of the revision petition will consume considerable time.
Learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the application for
suspension of sentence.
Heard learned counsel for the parties and scanned the
evidence available on record carefully.
Taking into consideration the submissions of learned counsel
for the petitioner, overall facts and circumstances of the case but
without commenting upon detailed merits of the case, this Court
deems it just and proper to allow the application for suspension of
sentence.
Accordingly, the application for suspension of sentence is
allowed and it is ordered that the sentence awarded to
accused/petitioner Rajendra Prasad Jain S/o Kanhaiyalal Jain
shall remain suspended till disposal of this revision petition and he
be released on bail, provided the petitioner furnishes a personal
bond of Rs.50,000/- and two sureties of Rs.25,000/- each to the
(3 of 3) [CRLR-947/2021]
satisfaction of the learned trial Court for his appearance in this
Court on 23rd November, 2021 and as and when called upon to do
so.
