Date of hearing: 22nd December, 1984.
The two grow ds on which great stress was laid by the learned counsel for bail of the petitioners, who sire accused of murderous assault and other offences under the Penal Code, are that two of the co-accused, namely, Ghafoor and Yousaf had been bailed out. Secondly eye-witness by the name of Wilayat Ali exonerated the petitioners:
So far as the case of the co-accused, who have been bailed out, is concerned that is distinguishable. They have been given concession of bail on the ground of merits.
I have seen the statement of Wilayat Ali. No doubt he has given clearance certificate to the three petitioners, but Ghulam Ali and Ghulam Abbas, who have been injured by the fire-arm, are yet to be examined.
Therefore, at this stage I am not inclined to admit the petitioners to bail. The petition is dismissed with the observation that they may apply to the trial Court after the aforesaid two injured have teen examined.
S.G.D.
