Full Judgment Text & Judicial Ruling

Court Name: Lahore High Court Judge(s): Muhammad Munir Khan Title: BASHIR AND Others vs THE STATE Case No.: Criminal Miscellaneous No. 2165-B of 1981 Date of Judgment:1981-09-01 Reported As: 1983 P Cr. LJ 2149 Result: Bail granted

Judgment ORDER This is an application for grant of bail on behalf of Bashir, Jamil and Muhammad Hussain in a case under section 10/11 of the Zina (Enforcement of Hudood) Ordinance, 1979 registered at Police Station, Moghalpura vide F. I. R. No. 110 dated 18th March, 1981. So far as Jamil is concerned, prayer for bail has already been rejected. So far as petitioners Nos. 1 and 3 are concerned, there are no allegations of Zina against them. The prosecutions case is that they facilitated the abduction of Mst. Naziran and took her to Siraj Para and from there they came back. 2. On the other hand, learned counsel for the State has seriously opposed the applications. He submits that the petitioners are equally liable for the act of his co-accused. 3. After hearing the parties, I find that there is no allegation of Zina against petitioners Nos. 1 and 3. They are in Jail for the last 5 months. I am of the opinion that no useful purpose would be served by keeping these petitioners in Jail. Petitioner No. 1 Bashir, and petitioner No. 3 Muhammad Hussain are allowed bail in the sum of Rs. 10,00 each with one surety, each in the like amount to the satisfaction of A. C, Cantt, Lahore.
