He also submits that he will
[2025:RJ-JP:21290] (2 of 3) [SOSA-1028/2025] surrender before the authorities immediately after the marriage ceremony, ensuring that his temporary release does not disrupt the legal process. So, in light of exceptional circumstances and the importance of family ties he needs interim bail. 3. A verification report has been submitted by Public Prosecutor and he submits that as per verification by Police, the marriage of sisters of appellant-accused is scheduled on 28.05.2025. He also submits that as per report other facts were also verified. 4. The appellant-accused Mohit @ Mannu @ Manish S/o Shri Mohanlal was convicted by learned Special Judge, POCSO Act Cases, No.2, Ajmer on 07.12.2021 in sessions case No. 160/2020 under Sections 376 (ab) IPC and 5(m)/6 POCSO Act. The appellant-accused was convicted for a period of 20 years with fine of ₹1,00,000/-. We are considering application for suspension of sentence (interim) only on the ground of marriage of sister of appellant-accused. The marriage of sisters of appellant-accused is scheduled on 28.05.2025 and the programmes are from 24.05.2025 to 28.05.2025. 5. Having considered the fact that marriage of sister of present appellant is scheduled on 28.05.2025, it is appropriate to allow application for suspension of sentence (interim) for a period of 4 days from 26.05.2025 to 29.05.2025. 6. Considering the reasons as mentioned in the application, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I am of the considered view that the interim application for suspension of sentence of appellant- Mohit @ Mannu @ Manish S/o Shri Mohanlal is allowed for a period of four days from 26.05.2025 to 29.05.2025 provided that he would execute a personal bond in the sum of ₹1,00,000/-with two sound sureties of ₹50,000/- each to the
