The applicant is convicted accused and he is sentenced to undergo R.I.for seven years and also to pay a fine of Rs. 1,000/- for the offence u/s 489-A of I.P.C. The applicant is also convicted and sentenced to undergo R.I.for seven years and also to pay fine of Rs.1,000/- for the offence u/s 489-B of I.P.C. For the offence u/s 489-C of the I.P.C. the applicant is convicted and sentenced to undergo R.I. for seven years and also to pay a fine of Rs. 1,000/-. Same is the punishment for the offence u/s 489-D of the I.P.C. However, the substantive sentences of all the offences awarded to the applicant are directed to run concurrently. 3. Reportedly, bail is already granted to the applicant vide an order dated 29.9.2008 by this Court in Criminal Application No.968 of 2008. By the present application, the applicant wants suspension of his conviction, though by granting bail, his sentence is already suspended. There is subtle difference between the suspension of sentence and suspension of conviction. The applicant wants that his conviction may also be suspended so that he is in position to get his pensionery benefits from Bhaba Atomic Research Centre (B.A.R.C. for short). Reportedly, the applicant is degree holder in biochemistry and is definitely knowing the consequences of his conviction for the offences charged. The offences committed by the accused-applicant are touching the economy of this country. Allegations are that he had used the advance ( 3 ) technology of computer for printing fake Indian currency notes. The appeal is already admitted and pending for hearing. The applicant is at present on bail. 4. Considering the above circumstances, in the opinion of this Court, it is not a fit case to suspend the conviction order dated 12.9.2006 so as to give him pensionery benefits. Applicant is already removed from his service by the B.A.R.C. There is no merit in the application. In the result, application is dismissed and accordingly disposed of. (A.R.JOSHI,J.) (A.R.JOSHI,J.)
