Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner contends that the petitioner was on bail during the trial as well as the appeal.

Counsel further contends that the [2026:RJ-JP:10560] (2 of 2) SOSA 54/2026 judgments of conviction & sentence passed by the Courts below, are totally based upon surmises and conjectures, and the revision petition is likely to take a long time to be decided.

Considering the term of sentence, without commenting upon the merits of the case, and taking into account the arguments made at bar, this Court deems it just & proper to suspend the sentence awarded to the petitioner during the pendency of the revision. Accordingly, this application for suspension of sentence is allowed. It is hereby ordered that the execution of sentence awarded to the petitioner, namely Guman Singh son of Ramnath @ Harinath by the ld. Trial Court vide judgment dated 26.11.2024 & affirmed by the ld.
