ORDER

Date :02.04.2026 (M. Zothankhuma, J) Heard Mr. J.C. Borah, learned counsel for the applicant and Ms. A. Begum, learned Addl. P.P., Assam for the State. Also heard Mr. A. Ahmed, learned counsel for the respondent No.2.

2. The applicant has prayed for suspending the sentence imposed upon him due to his conviction by the learned Trial Court under Sections 376AB of IPC read with Section 6 of the POCSO Act, vide Judgment and Order dated 01.08.2024, passed by the Addl. Sessions Judge-cum-Special Judge (POCSO), Morigaon in POCSO Case No.88/2019. However, in view of Section 42 of the POCSO Act, the applicant was sentenced under Section 376AB of IPC.

3. On considering the evidence of the victim, who is below 12 years of age and keeping in view the fact that the matter has been listed for final hearing on 04.05.2026, as all the parties have received copies of the paper book, we are not inclined to allow the application at this stage.

4. The I.A. is accordingly dismissed.
