This application has been filed for grant of bail to the applicant in F.I.R. No.62 of 2006, registered under sections 353/324, P.P.C. as Police Station Mubeena Town, Karachi. Brief facts of the prosecution case as per F.I.R. are that on 14-3-2006 an encounter took place between the police party and accused party wherein one accused was died, whereas the other received injuries a .30 bore pistol was recovered by that police from the applicant. Heard Mr. Lal Chand Mamtani, learned counsel for the applicant and M/s. Shahida Jatoi, learned counsel for the State, and perused the record. Learned counsel for the applicant vehemently argued that a false encounter has been imposed upon the applicant and police after abducting the applicant murdered one Hikmatullah, a friend of the applicant and thereafter registered the F.I.R., alleging encounter. It is stated that on the complaint of the father of deceased Hikmatullah and on the direction of the learned Sessions Judge, an F.I.R. has been registered against the policy party. In view of the above, since a counter F.I.R. has been registered against the police party questioning the encounter, the applicant's case becomes a case of further inquiry. Accordingly, the applicant is admitted to bail in the sum of Rs.1,00,000 and PR Bound in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Nazir of the trial Court. H.B.T./A-25/K Bail granted.
