Judgment ORDER NASIM HASAN SHAH, J.--This petition is directed against the order of the Lahore High Court accepting the application of respondent No.1 and setting aside the order of the Additional Sessions Judge, Gujrat, dated 15-8-1985 allowing bail to the petitioners. We have heard Mr. Muhammad Bilal, learned counsel for the petitioners and Sh. Ijaz Ali, learned counsel for the State and also perused the available record. We are satisfied that the High Court was fully justified in setting aside the order of bail granted by a Sessions Judge, who was not trying the case but merely attending to urgent matters during the vacations However, we also feel that the learned trial Judge should make, every effort to dispose of the Sessions Trial, which is at the defence stage, very expeditiously. He should do the needful before this year is out, namely, before 31-12-1985. This petition, with the above observations, is dismissed. A copy of this order be sent to the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Gujrat trying this case.
