ssm 2 8-appr440.18.doc Mr. Gawankar, the learned counsel for the Applicant submitted that, the Applicant will deposit the fine amount imposed upon him within a period of three weeks from today in the Registry of the Trial Court, if not deposited earlier, as he is lack of instructions in that behalf.

As the maximum sentence imposed upon the Applicant is three years of rigorous imprisonment and the possibility of hearing of the Revision on its own merits in near future is remote, I am inclined to suspend the sentence and release the Applicant on bail. Hence the following order­ a) The substantive sentence imposed upon the Applicant is suspended during the pendency of the present Revision Application.

b) During the pendency of the Revision, the Applicant be released on bail on his furnishing PR bond of Rs.15,000/­ with one or two local sureties in the like amount.

Application is allowed in the aforesaid terms. (A.S. GADKARI, J.) 2/2
