Mr. Randhir Singh Thind, Deputy Advocate General, Punjab. ***** GURVINDER SINGH GILL, J.(Oral) 1.

The learned State counsel has informed that although the appellant has already undergone the sentence as imposed in the present case, but he is undergoing sentence imposed in another case under NDPS Act, wherein he has been sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for 10 years. 2.

In view of the aforestated position, no order as regards suspension of sentence of imprisonment is required to be passed. In any case, even the appeal has not been admitted so far.

There is a delay of 1181 days in filing of the present appeal. 4.

The grounds set forth in the application bearing No.CRM-45979 of 2018 for condonation of delay are that the appellant could not file appeal since he was confined in jail in another case arising out of FIR No.134 dated 14.5.2013 registered at Police Station Mandi Gobindgarh under Section 22 of Narcotic PANKAJ KAKKAR 2020.02.25 18:10 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document
