ORDER Date : 15.09.2025 1) Heard Mr. S. Chauhan, learned counsel for the applicant. Also heard Ms. N. Das, learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State of Assam. 2) This application under Section 430 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 has been filed by the applicant for suspension of sentence imposed on him by the impugned Judgment dated 30.11.2024, which was upheld by the Judgment dated 20.05.2025, in Criminal Appeal No.30/2024. 3) The said Judgment has been impugned by the applicant in the connected Criminal Revision Petition No.375/2025, by the impugned Judgment
Page No.# 3/4 of the Trial Court the petitioner was convicted under Section 325 of the Indian Penal Code and was sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for 3 (three) months and to pay fine of Rs.5,000/- and in default of payment of fine to undergo simple imprisonment for 2 (two) months. 4) Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner has preferred the connected Criminal Revision Petition against the impugned
Judgment and is hopeful of getting a favorable result in the said Criminal Revision Petition. He also submits that considering the short term of sentence imposed on the petitioner unless the further execution of the sentence imposed by the impugned Judgment is stayed during the pendency of the connected Criminal Revision Petition, the said Revision Petition may become infructuous. 5) Considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for both sides, considering the fact that in the connected Criminal Revision Petition notices have been issued to the parties and also considering the fact that the sentence imposed on the petitioner by the impugned Judgment is a short term sentence of only 3 (three) months. 6) This Court is of the considered opinion that this is a fit case where the sentence imposed on the petitioner by the impugned Judgment may be stayed during the pendency of the connected Criminal Revision Petition and the same is accordingly done. 7) The petitioner is also allowed to go on bail of Rs.30,000/- with one surety of like amount subject to the satisfaction of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Udalguri in PRC Case No.126/2024 with a condition that in the event of dismissal of connected Criminal Revision Petition No.375/2025, the petitioner shall surrender before the Trial Court to serve a sentence imposed on him by the impugned Judgment.
