P.C. :

This is an application for early hearing of the appeal. Heard the learned advocate appearing for the applicants/appellants who are convicted of the offence punishable under Section 324 read with Section 34 of the IPC by the learned Ad-hoc Additional Sessions Judge-2, Nashik.

The learned advocate for applicants argued that applicants do not want to carry stigma of the conviction and, therefore, their appeal may be heard finally considering their Shivgan 1/2

This Court is hearing appeals of the year 2010 and 2011 in which appellants are undergoing jail sentence. Hence, the applicants who are on bail cannot claim out of turn hearing of their appeal. The application is, therefore, rejected. (A. M. BADAR, J.) Shivgan 2/2
