It is also alleged that after arrest a country-made pistol was recovered at the pointation of the present applicant. The police after usual investigation arrested and challaned the accused. Bail application was moved before the trial Court, which was rejected. Hence this bail application.

I have heard Mr. Lakhano K. Behrani, the learned counsel for the applicant and Mr. Fareed Ahmed Dayo, Advocate for A: G. for State. The F.I.R. shows that no overt act has been assigned to the present applicant. It is also admitted that the present applicant was arrested after about one month of the incident and the country-made pistol was recovered from grass. The pistol had not yet been sent to Ballistic Expert for his opinion. The present applicant has not been directly linked with the causing of the injury. In these circumstances I admit the applicant to bail. He shall be released on furnishing bail in the sum of Rs.50,000 (Rupees fifty thousand) with one surety and P.R. bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial Court.
