Order
19/05/2023
1. The instant application for suspension of sentence has been
moved on behalf of the applicant in the matter of judgment dated
25.10.2018 passed by the learned Judicial Magistrate No.2, City
South, Udaipur in Regular Criminal Case No.321/2011 whereby he
was convicted and sentenced to suffer imprisonment of three
years' simple imprisonment along with a fine of Rs.5,000/- under
Section 420 of IPC.
2. It is contended on behalf of the applicant that the learned
trial Judge has not appreciated the correct, legal and factual
aspects of the matter and thus, reached at an erroneous
conclusion of guilt, therefore, the same is required to be
appreciated again by this court. Hearing of the revision is likely to
[2023/RJJD/016505] (2 of 3)
take long time, therefore, the application for suspension of
sentence may be granted.
3. Per contra, learned public prosecutor has vehemently
opposed the prayer made on behalf of the accused-applicant for
releasing the petitioner on application for suspension of sentence.
4. Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the
material available on record.
5. Considering the submissions of learned counsel for the
parties and looking to the totality of facts and circumstances of
the case, more particularly the face that the hearing of revision is
likely to take further more time and considering the overall
submissions 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 revision, this
court is of the opinion that it is a fit case for suspending the
sentence awarded to the accused-petitioner.
6. Accordingly, the application for suspension of sentence filed
under Section 397/401 Cr.P.C. is allowed and it is ordered that the
sentence passed by learned Judicial Magistrate No.2, City South,
Udaipur who passed the impugned order dated 25.10.2018 in
Regular Criminal Case No.321/2011 against the petitioner-
applicant- Daulat Ram @ Daula Dangi S/o Hari Ram Dangi
shall remain suspended till final disposal of the aforesaid revision
and he shall be 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 his
appearance in this court on 19.06.2023 and whenever ordered to
[2023/RJJD/016505] (3 of 3)
do so till the disposal of the revision on the conditions indicated
below:-
(1) That he will appear before the trial Court in the month of January of every year till the appeal is decided.
(2) That if the applicant changes the place of residence, he will give in writing his changed address to the trial Court as well as to the counsel in the High Court.
(3) Similarly, if the sureties change their addresses, they will give in writing their changed address to the trial Court.
