3.
Learned counsel appearing for the appellant has submitted that the trial court has not appreciated the evidence produced before it as per established principles of law. He further submitted that learned trial Court has not considered the factual and legal aspect of matter properly. He further submitted that the appellant is on bail during trial and his sentence has already been suspended by the trial Court and hearing of the appeal is not likely to be concluded in near future. Therefore, the application for suspension of sentence may be allowed.
4. The learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the application for suspension of sentence.
5. I have heard the contentions of the learned counsel for the appellant and learned Public Prosecutor on the application for suspension of sentence and perused the material available on record.
6. Taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances of the case, the period of sentence awarded and the fact that disposal of the appeal is likely to take considerable time but without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, I am inclined to suspend the sentence of the appellant Kalu @ Kaluram Son Of Shankar.
7. It is, therefore, ordered that the sentence of the appellant shall remain suspended till disposal of the appeal and he shall be released on bail, provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with two sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/- each, to the satisfaction of the trial Court to the effect that they shall appear before this Court on 13.10.2025 and as and when called upon to do so.
