Hi,

This is very serious section where the girl is gang raped and other accused would have the same or similar punishment which must be based on the evidences and forensic reports to prove the accused guilty.

If all the police investigation proved him not guilty but the magistrate thinks he have sufficient reason to believe that the crime is committed, he may award the punishment.

On the basis of lower court decision you have to go to HC and find some fresh evidences to present the case and plead guilty like phone records, location etc to prove that he was not there or in forensic reports etc.

You need to approach the Appellate Court which will be Chandigarh High Court in your case challenging this order. The story line which you are stating and the fact that your nephew's name is not mentioned in the chargesheet is enough to get you out of this case. There are numerous judgment of the Supreme Court which will come in your way to rescue you out of this situation.

Further Supreme Court has also stated in its judgment that no compromise can happen in the case of Section 375-376 which punishes Rape. So in all possible situation do not fall for it as that will make your case worse and your chances of getting out of the case nil.

Waste no time in approaching the High Court. Approach an advocate with all the relevant documents and file related to your nephew's case.

Hi

First and foremost you should ask for suspension of sentence by filing a petition u/s389 Cr.P.C and at the same time file a criminal appeal u/s374 Cr.p.c in Punjab and Haryana High court within 30 days from the date of conviction.

Greater care should be taken to select a lawyer to defend the case in Punjab high court, as the offence involved is under 376 IPC and generally High courts will dig deep in to merits of case before ordering suspension of sentence and release on bail during pending appeal and hence the lawyer should be able to convince the Division bench of High court on why the sentence should be suspended and the convicted person is to be released on bail.

1) it is necessary to peruse order passed by trial court and evidence on record to advice

2) your nephew should file appeal against order of conviction

3) pending hearing and final disposal of appeal seek bail from HC

1. How has the said punishment has been awarded to you Nephew just based on the complaint made by the victim of the gang rape/

2. Has medical examination of the semen found in her body confirm it to be that of your Nephew?

2. No such provisions in law.

3. You can file bail application in high court after the same is dismissed in the sessions court.

4. It has to be argued properly

2) . Section 389 of the Code provides for bail pending appeal by a convicted person

3) Sub-section (1) of Section 389 no doubt authorises the appellate Court to suspend execution of the sentence or order appealed against for reasons to be recorded by it in writing and also to release the convict on bail. But such an order of suspension of execution of the sentence can be done only by recording the reasons therefor in writing. The intention of the Legislature is clear that an order of suspension of sentence should only be passed when very special cause is shown. This power of suspension regarding execution of sentence is in addition to the power of ordering release of the convict on bail
