The applicants who are original accused Nos.1, 5 and 6 were convicted for the offence punishable under Section 411 of I.P.C. and were sentenced to undergo R.I. for two years and to pay fine of Rs.2,000/- each. By this Application, they seek bail pending their Appeal against conviction and sentence. After conviction, the trial Court granted bail to the applicants on their executing P.R.Bonds of Rs.30,000/- in the like amount, but the applicants could not manage to get solvent surety of Rs.30,000/- each and they were taken in custody and could not get the benefit of suspension of sentence. 3. Taking into consideration the nature of offence for which they are convicted and the sentence awarded by the trial Court and huge pendency of Criminal Appeals in the High Court, I find that the applicants deserve to be granted bail pending Appeal. 4. In the result, the applicants are granted bail in the sum of Rs.10,000/- each with surety in the like amount subject to their executing fresh bail bonds and depositing the fine amount. --- (J.H.BHATIA,J.)
