IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY

CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.289 of 2015 (For bail & suspension of sentence) IN CRIMINAL APPEAL No.161 of 2015 Jitu @ Barisab Baburao Rajput .. Applicant

Versus

The State of Maharashtra .. Respondent --- Mr.Rohan Nahar with Mr.Paras D. Yadav, Advocate for the applicant.

Ms.Anamika Malhotra, APP for the Respondent State. --- CORAM : ABHAY M. THIPSAY, J.

DATED : 13th MARCH, 2015 --- P.C. :

The applicant's Appeal challenging his conviction and the sentence imposed upon him by the Addl. Sessions Judge, Khed Rajguru Nagar has already been admitted.

By the present application, the applicant/appellant prays that the sentence imposed upon him by the trial court, be suspended during the pendency of the Appeal, and that he be released on bail.

I have heard Mr.Rohan Nahar, learned counsel for the applicant. With his assistance, I have glanced through the

Tilak 2/2 (7)APPA-289-15 judgment delivered by the trial court, and the copies of the notes of evidence of witnesses recorded during the trial. On taking a prima facie view of the matter, this does not appear to be a fit case for suspension of the sentence that has been imposed upon the appellant.

Application is rejected.

However, liberty to the applicant/appellant to have the hearing of the Appeal, expedited.

Liberty to file a private paper book.

(ABHAY M.THIPSAY, J)
