AHMAD NAWAZ Versus THE STATE

ORDER

' Sadiq Karim petitioner was convicted alongwith his co-appellants on 11-11-1993 by the Sessions Judge, Dera Ghazi Khan to R.I. For a period of 25 years and to pay compensation of Rs,15,000 under section 302(c), P.P.C. His appeal is pending in this Court. Through the making of this petition he is desirous to be admitted to bail through the suspension of his sentence.

2. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties. Learned counsel for the petitioner made the arguments touching the merits of the case. He argued that the evidence produced by the prosecution did not justify the conviction of the appellant/petitioner. I am afraid that the deeper merits of the matter cannot be gone into lest the same may not prejudice the merits of the appeal.

Hence, I am not inclined to suspend the sentence of Said Karim petitioner to whom the practical role of injuring the deceased and the P.W. Is attributed.

3. I, therefore, dismiss this petition.
