Court Name: Lahore High Court Judge(s): Muhammad Munir Khan Title: ABDUL WAHID vs THE STATE Case No.:THE ST A TE--Respondent Criminal Miscellaneous No,909-B/BWP of 1985 in
Criminal Appeal No,66/BWP of 1985 Date of Judgment:1985-07-15 Reported As: 1985 MLD 1599 Result: Bail granted Judgment ORDER ' This is an application by Abdul Wahid petitioner for the suspension of the execution of sentence. He stands convicted under sections 307 and 149, P.P.C. And sentenced to four years' R.1 and a tine of Rs,2,000 in default thereof six months' R.I and one year's R.I., respectively, with the direction that the sentences shall run concurrently. 2. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner had not caused any injury to the injured prosecution witnesses. The learned counsel for the State is not in a position to controvert the submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioner. That being the position, I am of the view that the question of vicarious liability of the petitioner in the circumstances of the case needs serious consideration. So the execution of the sentence is suspended and the petitioner is allowed bail in the sum of Rs,10,000 with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of Assistant Commissioner Duty Magistrate, Bahawalpur.
