Learned Additional Government Advocate opposed the present application for suspension of sentence and submits that age of victim was about 14 years at the time of incident and in her statement recorded during trial, she has leveled allegation of com- mitting rape with her against the accused-applicant. 5. We have heard counsel for the parties and perused the record. 6. Considering the facts and circumstances of the present case; the statement of PW-1-victim and the fact that victim was about 14 years old girl at the time of incident, no case is made out to al- low the third suspension of sentence application. 7. Hence, the third suspension of sentence application stands dismissed. (BHUWAN GOYAL),J (INDERJEET SINGH),J PAYAL DHAWAN/26
