ORDER

' On earlier occasion, the bail application of the petitioners (Cr. M. No, 3195/B of 1979) was disposed of as withdrawn on 19th September, 1979.

This is a case of day time occurrence. F. I. R. Has been lodged promptly and the petitioners are attributed a specific role. This Court is not bound by the ipse dixit of the Police. The mere fact that the petitioners produced some witnesses in support of their plea of innocence, would not entitle them to bail, particularly when the, Investigating Office had not accepted their plea of innocence despite that evidence. The matter (Cr. M. No, 3195/B of 1979) was very intelligently argued at considerable length by Mr. Taqi Ahmad Khan, Bar-at-Law, and when he was confronted with the above position, he thought it advisable t withdraw the application and in doing so I think he adopted the right course.

2. Mr. M. D. Tahir. Advocate has filed another application for bail. There is no new ground either written or urged by him and the entire matter was sorted out at considerable length by Mr. Taqi Ahmad Khan, Bar-at-Law on the earlier occasion. Therefore, there is no justification for applying afresh on the same grounds and I think a conscientious lawyer should refuse the brief in such circumstances. There being no merit the application for bail is dismissed in limine revisions by the competent authorities. Therefore, it is advisable to consult the official sources or legal professionals for the most up-to-date and accurate information.
