This suspension of sentence application has been filed by the
applicant along with the criminal appeal.
In the case under consideration, the applicant has been convicted
for the offence under Section 363 IPC, Sections 7/8 & 11/12 of the
POCSO Act, 2012 and Sections 3(2)(va) & 3(1)(w-i) SC/ST (POA) Act,
2015 and sentenced with a maximum of three years rigorous
imprisonment along with fine as per judgment dated 27.07.2022.
Learned counsel for the applicant has annexed the certificate
under Rule 311 of High Court Rules to the effect that he was on bail
during the course of trial and presently he is confined in Central Jail,
Kota. Hence, the execution of sentence awarded to the applicant should
be suspended during the pendency of the appeal. It is submitted on
(2 of 2) [SOSA-1547/2022]
behalf of the applicant that the judgment of conviction and sentenced
passed by court below is totally based upon surmises and conjectures.
There is no evidence available on record against the applicant to
connect him with the alleged offences.
Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the prayer
regarding suspension of sentence.
Looking to the short term of sentence and without commenting
upon the merits of the case, this court deems it just and proper to
suspend the sentence awarded to the accused-applicant.
Having heard the learned counsel for the parties and after going
through the entire material available on record, this suspension of
sentence application is allowed and it is ordered that execution of
sentence awarded to the applicant Dwarkalal S/o Bhairulal by the
court below vide order dated 27.07.2022 against the accused-applicant,
shall remain suspended during the pendency of the appeal, provided he
furnish a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- along with two
sureties of Rs.25,000/- each, to the satisfaction of the learned court
below with the stipulation that he shall appear before this Court on
23.01.2023 and thereafter, as and when he is called upon to do so.
