ORDER
Date : 21.07.2026 (M. Zothankhuma, J) Heard Mrs. S. Khataniar, learned counsel for the applicant-appellant and Ms. B. Bhuyan, learned Addl. P.P for the State.
2. This is an application under Section 430 BNSS for suspending the sentence to be undergone by the applicant-appellant, on his conviction under Section 376 IPC read with Section 506 IPC vide Judgment dated 19.09.2025, passed by the learned Addl. District & Sessions Judge, Tinsukia in Sessions Case No.19(T)/2024, arising out of Bordubi P.S. Case No.159/2023.
3. The Prosecution case is to the effect that the applicant-appellant had raped his sister which led to his sister becoming pregnant. It has been stated at the Bar that a child has now been born to the victim.
4. On considering the fact that the final hearing on the appeal has been fixed on 07.09.2026 and keeping in view the conviction of the applicant-appellant under Section 376 IPC read with Section 506 IPC, we are not inclined to allow the application at this stage.
