ABDUL HAMEED versus STATE

Section 497 of the Conventional Code (XLV of 1860), Sections 419, 420, 468 and 471 of the Prevention of Corruption Act (II of 1947), Section 5 (2) bail, denied the accused's case because the co-accused was on bail. Was released, was also entitled to release on bail because of the principle of consistency. The principle of consistency was not attracted to the accused as he played a significant role in the incident in which he was charged. That a large amount of money and valuable property was involved. The second plea of the accused to be involved in another similar case was that he was sentenced to up to seven years in prison. His case was not affected by the prohibition clause of Section 749 Cr. But there is no doubt that this was a general rule, but subject to the exception where the person accused of repeatedly commissioning the same offenses directly affecting society, the person involved in the operation of the common law May lose the right to bail. Once the public prima facie case has been established with its fake designs, discretion cannot be exercised in favor of the accused in extending the bail. \ R \ n online advocate from Bahawalnagar lawyer
