2. No incriminating article has been recovered from his possession, except that after about one month of the occurrence co-accused Shahid Jamal has produced Rs.4,000 to the police which was given to him by one Tariq Mehmood.

3. Grievance of the petitioner is that respondent has been allowed pre-arrest bail, that too, on mysterious manner for which comments of Additional Sessions Judge were called for which would be dealt with administratively.

Therefore, even the rule of consistency requires that this application for cancellation of bail cannot be granted.

5. In view of the above, this application for cancellation of bail stands dismissed in limine, being devoid of force. H.B.T./175/P Application dismissed:
