Cr.MP No.1252 of 2025 By means of the present application, applicant Yudhvir Singh, seeks extension of time to furnish bail bonds in terms of the order passed by this Court on 7th November, 2024. 2. On 7th November, 2024, this Court passed the following order:- “……..Resultantly, while upholding the conviction of accused Yudhvir Singh under Section 332, read with Section 34 IPC, taking into account that he is the first offender and facing the agony of trial since the year 2005, the sentence of imprisonment imposed upon him by the learned Trial Court is set-aside. Accordingly, accused/appellant Yudhvir Singh is ordered to be released on probation of good conduct under Section 4(1) of the Probation of Offenders Act, 1958, on his furnishing personal bonds in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court for keeping peace and good behavior for a period of two years. The necessary bonds be furnished within a period of six weeks from today. However, it is made clear that in case, appellant Yudhvir Singh commits breach of any of the terms and conditions of the bond, he shall be called upon by the learned Trial Court to serve the awarded sentence. ..” 3. However, as per the applicant, he has failed to furnish bail bonds in terms of the aforesaid order within the stipulated period as granted by this Court due to the communication gap between him and his counsel as he has received the registered letter from his counsel only on 2nd April, 2025. The application is duly supported with the affidavit of the applicant. 4. I have heard the learned counsel for the applicant and also learned Deputy Advocate General. 5. Having regard to the averments made in the application, which are duly supported with the affidavit of the applicant and also in the interest of justice, the present application is allowed and 10 days’ further time is granted to the applicant to furnish bail bonds in terms of the order dated 07.11.2024, passed by this Court. The application stands disposed of. ( Sushil Kukreja ) Judge April 04, 2025 (reena)
