Judgment ORDER SARDAR TARIQ MASOOD, J.---The Petitioner along with his co-accused Taimoor Khan fired at the injured and caused four injuries to him. He is specifically nominated in the FIR. The only ground which was agitated before us is that he was found empty handed by the Investigating Officer at the place of occurrence. On the previous date, when a certain query was made to the Investigating Officer as to on which evidence/material he had found the petitioner empty handed, the answer was in negative and that was the reason that the concerned SP A Investigation was directed to appear before this Court, who is present today . According to him, the opinion of the investigating officer is not based on any credible evidence and disciplinary action has been taken against him. He also confirmed that he had recommended for reinvestigation of the matter . In that eventuality when petitioner is specifically nominated in the FIR for causing injury to the injured, he is not entitled for the concession of bail. The High Court while refusing bail to the petitioner had given valid reasons which are not open to any exception. This petition is dismissed.
