Suspension of Custodial Sentence Pending Revision | 6-Month Term + Prolonged Detention Justifies Bail on Bond: MP HC Jabalpur
The Madhya Pradesh High Court suspended the custodial sentence of a convict awaiting revision, ruling that prolonged detention since March 2026 and a maximum six-month sentence warrant release on bail pending final hearing. This reinforces that procedural delay and proportionality, not just bail eligibility, can justify suspension of sentence under Section 482 CrPC, even for non-bailable offences.
