MEENA Vs. STATE OF RAJASTHAN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE applicant, convicted for the offences under Sections 302/34, 201 and 380 of the Indian Penal Code and sentenced, inter alia, for life imprisonment, has moved this third application seeking suspension of execution of the sentence during pendency of appeal. THE first application (No. 612/2008) of this nature was dismissed as not pressed on 29.04.2009. THE second application (No. 882/2010) of the same nature as moved by the petitioner was considered and rejected by this Court on 06.08.2010 with the following order:-

(2.) THOUGH the learned counsel for the petitioner has attempted to persuade us with the submissions that on the evidence as adduced, no direct connectivity of the petitioner to the alleged crime is available and on the allegations as made and the role as assigned, in any case, the petitioner could not have been convicted for the offence under Section 302/34 IPC but then, in the totality of the circumstances of the case, we find no reason to take a view different than the one that has already been taken by the co-ordinate Bench. Moreover, we do not find any change of circumstances so as to consider this repeat application seeking suspension of execution of the sentence. Therefore, this application is required to be and, is hereby, rejected.
