Considering the evidence of eye-witnesses including injured eye-witnesses, it appears that no blow is stated to have been given by the applicant to anyone. The applicant is aged more than 60 years.
Under these circumstances, we find that it would be just and proper to suspend the sentence and to release the applicant on regular bail pending the appeal.
