BARKAT MESIH Versus STATE

ORDER

The petitioner seeks bail in a case registered against him and others vide F.I.R. No.376/1992, dated 16-6-1992 for an offence under section 302/324, Qisas and Diyat Ordinance, 148/149, P.P.C. at Police Station Sadar Gujranwala. .

2. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and State. Admittedly only ineffective tiring was attributed to the petitioner and that too, after Abdul, Iftikhar, Zulfiqar and Sarfraz co-accused had effectively fired at Safdar and Arshad, real brothers of Muhammad Saeed complainant. The bald allegation made against the petitioner is not supported by any other evidence in the shape of recovery of the crime weapon or empties from the spot. Moreover, while running away from the spot, the complainant or the other eye witnesses could not have possibly observed as to who was firing at them.

3. Therefore, I accept this application and allow bail to the petitioner subject to his furnishing bail bond in the sum of Rs.50,000 with two sureties E each in the like amount to the satisfaction of A.C./Duty Magistrate, Gujranwala.

4. After acceptance of the bail/surety bonds, the Court concerned shall forward the copies of the same to this Court through Registrar for record.

N.H.Q./B-106/L Bail granted.
