4. ' I have heard Mr. Ali Ahmed Khan, learned Advocate for the applicant and Mr. Nisar Ahmed G. Abro, learned State Counsel.
5. ' Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the applicant has contended that no any specific role of causing injury is attributed to the applicant/accused, therefore, the case against the applicant requires for further enquiry. He had also contended that no any recovery has been effected. He also contended that the applicant/accused has been falsely implicated due to enmity. Learned counsel further added that from 1998 to 6-11-2006, when the applicant was arrested, he was confined in jail at Balochistan, but on the query of the Court he could not produce any documentary evidence from the jail authorities in respect of applicant's confinement in any case in Province of Balochistan. On confronting this situation, the learned Advocate for the applicant states that even the period of his absconsion be treated as fugitive from the law, even then on the ground of hardship and on the role of instigation only he is entitled for the grant of bail. Learned counsel relied on the case of Moula Bux v. The State 2005 YLR 190 and case of Mukhtar v. The State 2008 YLR 1753.
6. ' Mr. Nisar Ahmed G. Abro, learned State Counsel, conceded the IA grant of bail and raised no objection.
7. ' I have considered the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the parties and perused the material available on the record.
8. ' From the perusal of record it reveals that R&Ps of the present case along with other cases were burnt by a mob after assassination of Muhtarama Benazir Bhutto on 27-12-2007. The record further reveals that necessary permission for reconstruction of files was sought, which has been granted vide order, dated 8-2-2008. In view of said order the file of present case has been reconstructed and duplicate police papers have also been called. According to F.I.R. Applicant/accused Gadal instigated co-accused and on his instigation co-accused Bakhat Ali had committed murder of deceased, therefore, it is yet to be ascertained whether the applicant has shared his common intention and whether section 34, P.P.C. Is attracted in this case.
9. ' In view of the above, in my humble opinion learned counsel for the applicant has succeeded in making out a case for grant of bail. I, therefore, admit the accused on bail subject to furnishing solvent surety in the sum of Rs,3,00,000 and P.R. Bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court.
