(Order of the Court was made by S.NAGAMUTHU, J)

¶11

The petitioner/appellant is the 1^st accused in S.C.No.634 of 2015 on the file of learned IV Additional District Sessions Judge, Tirunelveli. He has been convicted for the offence under Section 302 and 201 IPC. The maximum punishment imposed upon him is imprisonment for life. Challenging the said conviction and sentence imposed, the petitioner has come up with this appeal. Pending appeal, he seeks suspension of the substantive sentence of imprisonment imposed on him.

¶12

We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the respondent and we have also perused the records carefully.

¶13

According to the case of the prosecution, the accused, out of anger, cut the private part of the deceased to a length of 17 cm, which resulted in her death. There are circumstances to prove the said occurrence. The learned counsel for the petitioner has taken us through the evidence of P.W.1 and few more witnesses. We are not at all satisfied with the said arguments. We are persuaded by the arguments of the learned Additional Public Prosecutor that there are materials to substantiate the allegations against the petitioner. Thus, it is not a fit case to grant suspension of sentence. Accordingly, this petition is dismissed.
