2. The allegation against the petitioner as unfolded in the F.I.R. Registered at the instance of Muhammad Feroze Tiwana son of Ghulam Jillani was that the petitioner and others had prepared a forged document purported to have been made by an arbitrator with a view to depriving him of his valueable landed property.

3. The petitioner's plea for pre-arrest bail did not find favour with the learned Addl. Sessions Judge, Sargodha who dismissed the same vide his order dated 30-9-2004. Hence this petition.

Advocate-General who was around in some other case and has appeared on Court's call, as also Mr. Shakil Tariq, the learned State counsel and have perused the record brought by Yousaf Ali S.I./1.0., Police Station Cannt. District Sargodha.

5. The Investigating Officer submits that after a thorough probe in the matter he has come to the conclusion that the petitioner was not involved in the case and he has recorded a specific finding of innocence qua the petitioner. In view of the finding recorded by the Investigating Officer, the learned counsel appearing for the State did not seriously oppose the prayer for pre-arrest bail.

6. In view of the opinion recorded by the Investigating Officer, the case of the petitioner becomes one of further inquiry as envisaged by B subsection (2) of section 497, Cr.P.C.
