The applicant has been convicted and sentenced for the offence punishable under Section 324 of the Indian Penal Code to suffer rigorous imprisonment for two years and to pay fine of Rs.500/-, in default to undergo simple imprisonment for 7 days. The learned Advocate for the applicant 2010apeal473.11.odt 2/2 makes a statement across the bar that the applicant has paid fine amount before the trial Judge and the trial Judge has suspended the substantive sentence till the appeal period. It is also seen that the applicant was on bail during the trial. There is no allegation that he has misused the concession granted to him. Considering the fact that the final disposal of the appeal may take long time, I am satisfied that execution of substantive sentence should be suspended. Hence, the application is allowed. The execution of impugned substantive sentence is suspended till final disposal of the appeal. In the meantime, the applicant shall be released on bail on execution of personal recognition bond in the sum of Rs.15,000/- with one solvent surety in the like amount. JUDGE wwl
