Criminal Bail Application No. 1376 of 1986, decided on 10th September, 1986.

Faizanul Haq for Petitioner.
A.A. Muhammadally, A.A.-G. for the State.
The applicant is facing trial under section 17(3) of Hudood Ordinance. He absented himself from the proceedings and non-bailable warrants were issued against him. He appeared before the Court. He remained absent for a period of six months and the Court condoned the absence. But again on 10-3-1984 the applicant absconded and did not attend the Court. He appeared on 1-9-1986 and for the second time he remained absent for 2-1/2 years. Thus, he has misused the concession of bail twice. On such grounds his application was rejected by the learned Additional Sessions Judge and I see no reason to interfere with the said order as the applicant did not care to attend the Court.
The application is dismissed.
S.A./Z-17/K Bail refused.
