2. Learned counsel argued that the petitioner was empty handed at the time of occurrence. He next forcefully submitted that there was absolutely no motive with the petitioner to commit the offence Learned State counsel opposed the grant of bail to the petitioner half‑heartedly. He could not say anything substantial against the petitioner. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have perused the record very carefully. The petitioner was found empty handed. There is definitely delay in lodging the F I.R Learned State counsel was unable to dislodge the weighty argument of learned counsel for the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is admitted to bail in the sum of Rs.50,000 with two sureties, each in the like amount, to the satisfaction of A.C. Sheikhupura. This petition stands disposed of. M.Y.H./K‑66/ L Bail granted.
