is ready to pay Rs.1,00,000/- to the respondent No.1 during the pendency of the criminal revision petition and therefore it is prayed that the sentence

awarded by the trial court and affirmed by the appellate court be suspended.

Rs.1,00,000/-to the respondent No.1, the application for suspension of sentence being S.B. Criminal Suspension of Sentence Application No218/2018
