The instant application for temporary suspension of sentence
under Section 389 Cr.P.C. has been filed by the petitioner on the
ground of the marriage of his brother.
The allegation against the petitioner is of offence punishable
under Section 8/22 & 29 of the NDPS Act.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the marriage
of petitioner's brother is going to be solmenized on 25.06.2024
and presence of petitioner is very much essential during marriage
functions. In these circumstances, the sentence of the petitioner
may kindly be temporarily suspended.
Learned Public Prosecutor has verified the fact regarding
marriage of petitioner's brother.
[2024:RJ-JD:24870] (2 of 3) [SOSA-707/2024]
I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as
learned Public Prosecutor and perused the material available on
record.
Having regard to overall facts and circumstances of the case
and keeping in view the fact that marriage of petitioner's brother
is going to be solemnized on 25.06.2024, therefore, I deem it just
and proper to release the petitioner on interim bail from
15.06.2024 to 30.06.2024.
Accordingly, the application for temporary 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,
NDPS Cases, Hanumangarh vide judgment dated 04.08.2023 in
Sessions Case No.32/2016 against the petitioner - Gurpreet Singh
@ Sonu S/o Raju Ram @ Rama @ Ramawtar shall remain
temporarily suspended and he shall be released on temporary bail
from 15.06.2024 to 30.06.2024, subject to the condition that he
shall deposit a demand draft of Rs.2,50,000/- of a Nationalized
Bank executed in favour of the trial court and also furnish a
personal bond in a sum of Rs.4,00,000/- with two sound and
solvent sureties in the sum of Rs.2,00,000/- (out of which one
surety will be a close relative of the petitioner) each to the
satisfaction of learned trial court for his surrender on completion
of period of interim bail. It is made clear that if the petitioner
surrenders within the stipulated period then the demand draft of
Rs.2,50,000/- will be returned to him. In case, the petitioner fails
to surrender before the concerned Jail after period of interim bail,
the demand draft so deposited by the petitioner shall be forfeited.

Let this criminal bail be listed on 04.07.2024, on which date,
learned Public Prosecutor shall be required to submit the
compliance of the order whether petitioner has surrendered or
not.
