JUDGMENT : AJIT SINGH, J. 1. Mr. A. Ahmed and Mr. D. Tiwari, learned counsel for the applicant. 2. Ms. B. Bhuyan, learned Additional Public Prosecutor, Assam for Respondent No.1. Heard on IA (Crl.) No.611/2018, which is an application for bail and suspension of sentence on behalf of applicant- Dipak Gogoi. 3. Applicant Dipak Gogoi along with co-accused Numal Gogoi has been found guilty of committing the murder of Rasna Doley and sentenced to imprisonment for life and fine of Rs. 5000/-. Both of them have also been convicted under Section 376(2)(g) of the Indian Penal Code and sentenced to rigorous imprisonment for 10 years and fine of Rs. 2000/-. The jail sentences are to run concurrently. 4. Dead body of Rasna was found on 23.3.2012 on a National Highway. The body had head injuries. The post mortem examination report does not mention any sexual assault on Rasna. PW-1 Tuniram Doley, father of deceased Rasna lodged the First Information Report against unknown persons. 5. There is no eye witness to the incident and the entire case of the prosecution is based on circumstantial evidence, mainly last seen together. 6. It is argued on behalf of the applicant that the Trial Court committed an illegality in convicting him despite there being no evidence to connect him with the homicidal death of Rasna and sexual assault on her, if any. It has also been argued that evidence of last seen is too weak to warrant conviction of the applicant. 7. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the fact that applicant was on bail during trial, we deem it proper to grant him bail. We, accordingly, direct that if applicant Dipak Gogoi furnishes a solvent surety in the sum of Rs. 20,000/- and executes a personal bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Sessions Judge, Dhemaji, the execution of sentence passed against him shall remain suspended and he shall be released on bail. 8. The application is allowed.
