This is an application for being released on bail during the pendency of Criminal Appeal No.1553 of 2004 filed by the applicant against the order of conviction and sentence for the offence punishable under Section 302 of IPC. 2. We have heard Mr. Apte, the learned counsel for the applicant, gone through the depositions of the relevant witnesses as well as the reasoning set out by the learned trial Judge in support of the order of conviction and sentence. We do not think that this is :2: a fit case to release the applicant on bail by suspending the order of sentence under Section 389 of Cr.P.C. and, therefore, the application is rejected. 3. However, the applicant is at liberty to apply for expeditious hearing of the appeal as soon as the paper book is ready. (Smt.R.S. Dalvi,J.) (Smt.R.S. Dalvi,J.) (Smt.R.S. Dalvi,J.) (B.H.
