JAWWAD S. KHAWAJA, J. -- The petitioner Muhammad Parvaiz seek post-arrest bail which has been refused to him by the learned Courts below.
2. The main stay of the police investigation and the prosecution in opposing bail is that car bearing No, LEC- 2776 and a cash amount of Rs, 3000/- was recovered from the petitioner. The record itself shows that this aspect of the case is not correct, In Zimni No, 12, dated 18.7.2010 it has been noted that the aforesaid car No, 2776-LEC was given on superdari by a learned Magistrate much before the petitioner was apprehended, In this view of the matter, it is not possible to accept that the same car was actually recovered at the instance of the present petitioner who was arrested on 01.08.2010. It also stretches credence that a sum of Rs, 3000)- in a polythene bag was recovered from the car, again at the instance of the present-petitioner from under the driver's seat. .Other aspects of the investigation also point to a need for further inquiry, but the same need not to be considered at the bail stage. The above-noted discrepancies in the investigation indicate that the petitioner's guilt needs to be probed further. This petition is, therefore, converted into appeal and is allowed. The petitioner is granted bail on furnishing personal bonds in the sum of Rs, 1,00,000/- (one lac) with two sureties in the like amount to the satisfaction of learned Trial Court.
3. Learned Additional Prosecutor General was asked to explain the incompetence or lack of probity of the police functionaries. He undertakes to ensure that effective disciplinary action will be taken against the delinquent police functionaries who may have bungled the investigation. Let him do so.
However, the Additional Inspector General of Police (Investigation) Punjab shall also probe into the matter and submit a report to the Assistant Registrar/Branch In charge Supreme Court Registry at
