(2 of 3) [SOSA-405/2023]
The victim is present in the Court and she with utmost
confidence and maintaining composure stated that she got
married with the appellant and the statement before the trial was
made by her under the pressure.
Learned Public Prosecutor vehemently opposes the prayer
made by learned counsel for the accused-appellant.
The accused-appellant is behind the bars and the hearing of
appeal is likely to take further more time, therefore, considering
the overall submissions and looking to the totality of facts and
circumstances of the case while refraining from passing any
comments on the niceties of the matter and the defects of the
prosecution as the same may put an adverse effect on hearing of
the appeal, this court is of the opinion that it is a fit case for
suspending the sentence awarded to the accused appellant.
Accordingly, the application for suspension of sentence filed
under Section 389 Cr.P.C. is allowed and it is ordered that the
sentences passed by the learned Special Judge, POCSO Act, 2012,
No.2, Jaipur Metro-I, vide judgment dated 14.2.2023 in Sessions

released on bail provided he executes a personal bond in the sum
of Rs.50,000/-with two sureties of Rs.25,000/- each to the
satisfaction of the learned trial Judge for their appearance in this
court on 03.04.2023 and whenever ordered to do so till the
