Judgment & Decree
Malik Muhammad Aslam for Petitioner. M. Jameel Aslam Pirzada for the State. This is an application for grant 'of bail to Ghulam Ali petitioner in a case under section 10/11 of Offence of Zina (Enforcement of Hadd) Ordinance, 1979 registered at P.S. Saddar Bahawalpur, vide F.I.R. No. 104/86.
2. The prosecution case is that the petitioner and others abducted Mst. Rashidah Bibi in order to subject her to illicit intercourse. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that Mst. Rashidah Bibi is legally‑wedded wife of Abdul Ghaffar the son of the petitioner. The learned counsel for the State assisted by the learned counsel for the complainant has opposed this application on the ground that Mst. Rashidah Bibi has not been recovered so far and that the petitioner had participated in her abduction by his son.
3. I have considered the submissions made by the learned counsel for the parties with care. I find that there arc no allegations of Zina against the petitioner; that he remained with the police after his arrest but Mst. Rashidah Bibi could not be recovered and as such no useful purpose would be served by keeping him in jail till the recovery of Mst. Rashidah Bibi.
4. For what has been said above I am of the view that case for grant of6ail to the petitioner has been made out. He is, therefore, allowed bail in the sum of Rs.10,000 with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of A.C./Duty Magistrate, Bahawalpur. H.B.T./G‑188/L Bail granted.
