Judgment & Decree

ASLAM RIAZ HUSSAIN, J.‑‑ The petitioner seeks leave to appeal against an order of the Lahore High Court, Lahore dated 8th February, 1987 dismissing his application for cancellation of bail of Mohsin Ali Shah respondent. Notice was issued to the State on the last date of hearing. We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as for the State, and Mohsin Ali Shah respondent. We are informed that Mohsin Ali Shah has been placed by the investigating officer in column No.2 of the challan and he has not yet been summoned as an accused by the learned trial Judge. In this view of the matter we do not consider it to be a fit case for interference with the discretionary order of the Lahore High Court. The petition is therefore dismissed. M.I./M‑144/S Petition dismissed.
