Judgment & Decree
JAVID IQBAL, J.‑‑ This is a petition for leave to appeal in a matter of bail. Petitioner Abdul Hameed was charged with offences under sections 420, 406, 468 and 471 of the Pakistan Penal Code at Police Station City Sheikhupura on 11th June, 1986. The allegation against him was that he had defrauded the complainant Syed Qasim Ali Shah into purchasing a non‑existent plot from Muhammad Hanif etc. vendors and thereby rendering him a loss of more than Rs.6,00,
000. He was allowed interim bail on medical ground by a learned Single Judge of the Lahore High Court, Lahore but subsequently it was doubted whether medical certificate was genuine or not. Therefore the learned Judge ordered that he be taken into custody by the police and produced before him in the Court, but he had been avoiding arrest. While this is the state of affairs he has now come before us and wants to be admitted to bail on medical ground on the basis of a medical certificate issued by a private doctor dated 17th October, 1986 that he was suffering from lumbago and that had been advised bed rest on a hard bed. In fact the position is that he has already been allowed interim bail and is avoiding appearance before the learned Judge. In that view of the matter it is not a fit case for interference. The petition is accordingly dismissed. M.I. /4415/S Petition dismissed.
