SYED SHABBAR RAZA RIZVI, J.
The petitioners filed this application for bail before arrest in F.I.R. No.662 of 2005, dated 27-10-2005, under sections 354, 34,. 337-A(ii), P.P.C. registered at Police Station Shera Kot, Lahore.
2. It is very unfortunate that lawyers file bail applications and other petitions without disclosing that bail application of the same accused person already stands dismissed by the Court. This wilful and dishonest suppression of fact is on increase. This attitude is inconsistent with the tradition and name of this profession. Sadly, some members of the Bar are determined to pollute the good name of this profession. They are following the unethical practice recklessly without being afraid of any punishment, etc.
3. This is a high time that the Punjab Bar Council should realize their moral and statutory duty to purge the community by taking an appropriate action against such members of the Bar. The petitioners filed Criminal Miscellaneous No.15/B of 2006, Abbas and others. v. The State which was dismissed vide order, dated 6-1-2006. Despite that, the A learned counsel filed present petition, Criminal Miscellaneous No.255/B of 2006 on the following day i.e. 7-1-2006, suppressing dismissal of earlier bail application on 6-1-2006. For the same reason, this bail application is dismissed.
