Muhammad Bashir Mirza for the State.
This is a petition on behalf of Naukar Hussain for suspension of sentence. He has been convicted by the learned Sessions Judge, Gujranwala on 11-11-1986 under section 304, Part II, P.P.C. and sentenced to undergo 5 years' R.I. plus fine with benefit of section 382-B, Cr.P.C.

If Naukar Hussain had any intention to kill Muhammad Anwar, he must have come to the spot duly armed but admittedly he did not use any weapon in the assault. He also did not repeat the injuries'.
3. In view of the circumstances of the case, I grant the petition and suspend the sentence of the petitioner and admit him to bail subject to his furnishing security in the sum of Rs.15,000 with two sureties in the like amount to the satisfaction of A . C . , Gujranwala.
