On the bail prayer of the appellants and suspension of sentence under section
389 Cr.P.C. it is submitted by the counsel for the appellants that the appellants
were on bail during the trial and they have not misused the liberty of bail. He
further contended that the appeal is not likely to be heard in near future. He
further contends that there was cross versions from the side of the appellant.
Shitla Prasad has sustained injury, even lacerated wound which has not been
explained at all. The trial judge wrongly disbelieved the version of the
accused appellant.
Learned AGA could dispute the said fact.
Without expressing any opinion on the merit, let the appellants Lakhan,
Sheetal, Prem Singh and Amar Pal be released on bail on their furnishing a
personal bond of Rs. 1 lac with two sureties each in the like amount to the
satisfaction of trial judge concerned in the above Sessions Trial for above
offence. As soon personal and surety bonds are furnished, photocopies of the
