CRR No. 2230 of 2024
(LALARAM RAIKWAR Vs THE STATE OF MADHYA PRADESH)
Dated : 24-06-2024
Shri Jagdish Prasad Singrol - Advocate for the applicant.
Ms. Shanti Tiwari - PL for the respondent/State.
Heard on admission.
Admit.
Also heard on I.A.No.11209/2024, which is the first application filed on behalf of the applicant for suspension of sentence and grant of bail.
The applicant was convicted by the trial Court under Section 304-A of IPC and sentenced to undergo R.I. for 2 years with fine of Rs.4000/-, under Section 279 of IPC with fine of Rs.500/-, under Section 337 (on 20 counts) of IPC with fine of Rs.200/- (on 20 counts each i.e Rs.4000/-), under Section 338 of IPC with fine of Rs.1000/- and under Section 3/181 of MV Act with fine of Rs.500/-with default stipulation.
Learned counsel for the applicant has submitted that the Courts below have not properly appreciated the oral and documentary evidence available on record and committed error in convicting the applicant for aforesaid offence. The applicant is in custody and there is a bleak possibility of disposal of this revision in near future, therefore, the sentence of the applicant may be suspended and he may be released on bail.
Learned counsel for State has opposed the application. Looking to the nature of offence, I find it to be a fit case to suspend the jail sentence of the applicant and to release him on bail, therefore, without commenting on the merit of the case, this application is allowed.
