Judgment & Decree

(On appeal from the judgment and order of the High Court of West Pakistan, Karachi Bench, Karachi, dated the 9th October 1967, in Criminal Appeal No. 19 of 1966). Penal Code (XLV of 1860). S. 393‑Conviction for attempted robbery‑Re‑examinations of evidence found necessarySpecial Leave to Appeal granted by Supreme Court. Muhammad Hayat Junejo, Advocate, Supreme Court instructed by Muhammad Mesawa, Attorney for Petitioner Nemo for the State. Date of hearing: 16th February 1968. MUHAMMAD YAQUB ALI, J.‑‑It is pointed out that the evidence on the point of attempted robbery is misrepresented in the order of the High Court. We have seen the evidence of Ramzan in which he categorically stated that the petitioner asked him and his other companions to get up and thereafter there was noise and the petitioner ran away. It appears necessary in the interest of safe administra tion of justice to re‑examine evidence in the case. Leave to appeal 'is granted. Bail to the satisfaction of the District Magistrate.
