Judgment & Decree
This bail application has been placed before this Bench in view of the order, dated 3‑12‑2001 passed by the Honourable Chief Justice on the office note dated 1‑12‑2001. This bail application has been moved by three applicants namely Ghulam Muhammad, Din Muhammad and Ahmed sons of Mithal who are involved in Crime No.4 of 2000 of Police Station Jhallo, District Dadu under sections 302, 324 and other sections of P.P.C. The incident is admitted by both the parties. At the outset learned counsel for the applicants submitted that the bail application of Ghulam Muhammad who has been attributed the fatal injury to deceased Abdul Latif is not being pressed by him. He presses the bail application for applicants Din Muhammad and Ahmed. It is also contended that in this case in Criminal Bail Application No.650 of 2000 two co‑accused namely Mithal and Kauro have been granted bail on 28‑11‑2000. He also informed that in the Crime No.5 of 2000 all the four persons involved in the matter have been allowed bail before arrest by Court of Session. I considered the submissions of the counsel for the applicants as well as of learned counsel for the State. The latter has opposed the grant of bail. According to the F.I.R. the allegations against Din Muhammad is that he caused sharp side hatchet blows to P. W. Azizullah, whereas Ahmed tired at the complainant and Azizullah.

According to it injured Azizullah received only one injury on his parital region which has been caused with hard and blunt substance. There is no pellet injury found on his body and so also no injury caused by sharp side of the hatchet on his person. Keeping in view of the fact that there are counter‑versions; all the accused in the counter‑case have been allowed bail; two accused in this case have been granted bail as observed above and that the medical report is not in consonance with the version recorded in the F.I.R. the present applicants namely Din Muhammad and Ahmed are allowed bail on each of them furnishing surety m the sum of Rs.2,00,000 (Rupees two lacs) and P.R.
