1. This application for suspension of sentence has been filed by
the applicants, who have been convicted by the trial court for the
offences under Sections 341, 323/34, 324/34, 307/34 & 302/34 of
IPC and have been awarded sentence as under:-
[2024:RJ-JD:25035-DB] (2 of 4) [SOSA-449/2024]
Offence Sentence Fine 302/34 IPC L.I. Rs.50,000/- in default of payment to 6 months' S.I. 307/34 IPC 10 years' S.I. Rs.10,000/- in default of payment to 2 months' S.I. 324/34 IPC 3 years' S.I. Rs.5,000/- in default of payment to 1 month's S.I. 323/34 IPC 1 year's S.I. Rs.1,000/- in default of payment to 15 days' S.I. 341 IPC 1 month's S.I. Rs.1,000/- in default of payment to 15 days' S.I.
2. Learned counsel for the applicants argued that the author of
the fatal injury by knife is attributed to the co-accused Wasim and
the allegation against the present female applicants is only of
instigating and beating by lathis. Both the applicants have been
convicted with the aid of Section 34 of the Indian Penal Code only.
3. While informing that during trial, applicants were on bail;
they have already remained behind the bars for about seven
months; that the hearing of appeal will take time and therefore,
the application for suspension of sentence be granted.
4. Learned Public Prosecutor vehemently opposed the
application for suspension of sentence.
5. Having heard learned counsel for the applicants and
considering that as per the statements, the applicants are not the
author of the fatal injuries caused to the deceased and the
allegation is only for instigating and beating with lathis, hence,
considering the mandate of Section 437 Cr.P.C., we are inclined to
suspend the sentence of the applicants.

preferred on behalf of applicant is allowed and it is ordered that
