Judgment ORDER 1. Urgency granted. 2. Exemption granted. 3. The applicant has applied for protective bail in crime No.51/2023 under Section 114/116, 468, 471, 420 PPC at P.S. Railway Khanaywal. Learned counsel submits that applicant is innocent and the railways tickets allegedly booked by the complainant have not been recovered from the possession of the applicant/accused. He further contended that the applicant/accused has been implicated at the statement of his colleagues working in the agency and it is settled principle that statement of co-accused is not sufficient ground to involve him in the alleged offence. He further contends that the police due to animosity is trying to arrest the applicant/accused in order to defame him in the society, therefore, protective bail may be granted. Without touching the merits of the case, the applicant is granted protective bail for ten (10) days to surrender himself before the trial court subject to his furnishing solvent surety in the sum of Rs.40,000/- (forty thousand) and P.R bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of Nazir of this court. This order will remain in force for seven (07) days from today or to the date on which the applicant will surrender himself before the trial court, whichever is earlier. At this stage, learned counsel for the applicant/accused submits that the applicant may be permitted to deposit cash amount with the Nazir as a tangible security/surety as he could not arrange the surety as well as the banks are not working today, therefore, the applicant/accused may be allowed to deposit cash amount with the Nazir. Order accordingly. The bail application is disposed of.
