2. It is contended that statutory period of one year has elapsed yet they appeal of the petitioner has not been disposed of. It is further contended that sentences of co‑convicts of the petitioner have been suspended by this Court earlier and the petitioner's case being at par with them he is also entitled to the same relief in the meaning of subsection (1‑A)(b) of section 426, Cr.P.C. Learned State counsel has however opposed the petition.
