Judgment & Decree

S.498‑‑Penal Code (XLV of 1860), Ss. 325 & 148/149‑‑Bail before arrest, grant of‑‑Petitioners never joining investigation during period of interim bail‑‑Absence of any specific order of Court to petitioners to join investigation during interim bail, held, of no avail‑‑Petitioners, held, misused concession of interim bail, in‑circumstances ‑‑Confirmation ofinterim bail declined. Khan Khudadad Khan Barki for Petitioners. Mrs. Salma Tasaddaq for the State. The present case was registered vide F.I.R. No. 301, dated 22‑6‑1984, under section 325/452/148/149, P.P.C. Their petition for pre‑arrest bail was dismissed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge whereafter they approached this Court. They were allowed interim bail before arrest by my order, dated 19‑7‑1984. 2. I have checked up the police file of this case and have also been informed by the learned State counsel that the petitioners did not join the investigation of this case at any stage of the investigation. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioners contends that there was no order by this Court while granting interim bail that the petitioners should join the investigation. It is next contended that according to his instructions, the petitioners joined the investigation. 4. I have checked up the police record as stated above. The petitioners never joined the investigation of this case. The contention of the learned counsel that there was no specific order of this Court to the petitioners that they should join investigation is wholly misconceived. Such an order is never necessary. It is the duty of the accused that they should associate themselves with the investigation. This means that so far they have been misusing the concession of interim bail earlier allowed to them by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Okara and then given to them by this Court I will not,) therefore, hear the petition on merits. Dismissed. S. G. D. Bail refused.
