ORDER

1. ' The petitioner was convicted under section 302(c)/34, P.P.C. By the trial Court and sentenced to 14 years. He was also directed to pay compensation of Rs.1,00,000 to the legal heirs of the deceased.

2. The petitioner sought suspension of sentence before the High Court on the ground that he had been pardoned by the legal heirs of the deceased. The High Court rightly declined to grant bail on the above ground. If there is a genuine compromise between the petitioner and the legal heirs of the deceased, the petitioner, if so advised, may move the High Court through appropriate proceedings for disposal of his appeal on the basis of alleged pardon.

3. ' With the above observation, leave to appeal is declined and the petition dismissed.
