ORDER : Accused-applicant has preferred this application for suspension of sentence. 2. Heard on application for suspension of sentence. 3. It is informed by learned Additional Government Advocate that complainant has been intimated about filing of the criminal appeal as well as application for suspension of sentence. No one has put in appearance on behalf of the complainant, despite information. Report in this regard has also been submitted by learned State Counsel and the same is taken on record. 4. It is contended by counsel appearing for the accused-applicant that case rests upon circumstantial evidence. The allegation was against Kendra Singh but Police has not filed the charge-sheet against him. It is further contended that applicant has remained in custody for a period of 7 years & 7 months and disposal of appeal is bound to take time. 5. Learned Additional Government Advocate has opposed the application for suspension of sentence. It is contended that the dead body was recovered at the instance of the applicant. 6. We have considered the contentions. 7. Taking note of the facts that applicant has remained in custody for a period of 7 years & 7 months; that initially the allegation of pushing the deceased was against Kendra Singh, however Police has not filed the charge-sheet against him; that disposal of appeal is bound to take time, without commenting upon merits of the case, we deem it proper to allow the present application for suspension of sentence. 8. Accordingly, the present application for suspension of sentence is allowed. It is ordered that the sentence awarded to accused-applicant in Sessions Case No.08/2016 shall remain suspended if the accused-applicant furnishes a personal bond of Rs. 1,00,000/- and two sureties of Rs. 50,000/- each to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court to the effect that he shall appear before this Court as and when called upon to do so.
