BEFORE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE MICHAEL ZOTHANKHUMA HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJESH MAZUMDAR
ORDER 15.06.2026 (Michael Zothankhuma, J)
Heard Mr. D. Bora, learned counsel for the applicant/appellant. Also heard Mr. R.R. Kaushik, learned Addl. Public Prosecutor. This application has been filed under Section 430(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 for suspension of sentence in connection with
Judgment and Order dated 12.3.2026 passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge (FTC), North Salmara, Abhayapuri, Bongaigaon in Sessions Case NO.
Page No.# 3/3 27(J)/2023 convicting the accused/appellant under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code and sentencing him to undergo Life Imprisonment with a fine of Rs. 50,000/-, in default of payment of fine to undergo Rigorous Imprisonment for 6 months. On perusing the impugned Judgment passed by the learned Trial Court, it appears that there are not only eye witnesses to the crime, but there are also injured eye witnesses, who have been injured by the knife wielded by the applicant/appellant. On account of the above facts, we do not find sufficient ground to allow the prayer of the applicant for suspending the sentence awarded to him and to release him on bail. Application is accordingly dismissed.
