3. As per F.I.R. Specific allegation against the accused/petitioners is that they along with their other co-accused launched murders assault on the complainant party, resorted to firing resulting in the death of one Faqir Bakhsh and nine persons were injured.

4. It is contended by the learned Counsel for the petitioners that story narrated in the F.I.R. Is highly improbable; that none of the three petitioners was alleged to have caused any injury to the deceased; that apart from Ajmal who allegedly fired twice, the other two petitioners did not repeat any fire; that injury attributed to Nasir petitioner is "Shuja Khafifa", which is otherwise bailable; that no empty was recovered from the spot; that the injuries attributed to the petitioners are on non- vital parts of the body of the P.Ws.; that co-accused Muhammad Bakhsh who had allegedly caused injuries to deceased Faqir Bakhsh has been allowed bail by the learned A.S.J vide order dated 27-7-2008.

5. On the other hand, learned State Counsel assistant by learned Counsel for the complainant contends that from all the three petitioners their respective weapons were recovered after arrest, which were sent to the Forensic Science Laboratory, where the empties recovered from the spot were also sent and according to the report empties had matched the weapons recovered from the petitioners. It is further added that Ajmal petitioner is already involved in four cases of violence whereas Nasir and Zangi petitioners are also involved in similar cases; three against Nasir and five against Zangi.

6. I have considered the arguments of the learned Counsel for the parties.

7. All the three petitioners are named in the F.I.R. They were armed with firearm weapons; they had caused injuries to the P.Ws, whereas, as a result of the combined act of all the accused persons one person lost life, whereas 9 others suffered fire-arm injuries. Petitioners are also holding previous criminal record of violence. Weapons recovered from them have cross-matched with the empties recovered from the spot. In these circumstances, no case for grant of bail is made out for any of the petitioners. Resultantly, all the three applications are dismissed.
