ORDER

1. It is apparent from the perusal of F.I.R. that the petitioner was not named as the accused. It is, however, explained by the Investigating Officer that during the course of investigation it was stated by the officials of WAPDA that it was due to mistake that name of the petitioner was not mentioned in the F.I.R. Even if that be so, the case becomes one of further inquiry and on the present record, it cannot be said that the petitioner is guilty of offence of which he is being accused. Even otherwise the offence is not hit by prohibitory clause of section 497 of Cr.P.C. The petitioner is working as Administrative Officer in the University of Engineering arid Technology, Lahore.

2. For all these reasons, the interim order, dated 27-12-1993 is confirmed.
