2. Precise allegation against the petitioners is that they while armed with deadly weapons entered the house of the complainant and inflicted injuries on the person of Muhammad Jamal/complainant and Mst. Sakeena Bibi.
3. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the record.
4. There is delay of two days in lodging of the FIR which has not been explained. During the course of investigation the I.O. Came to a definite conclusion that in-fact the alleged place of occurrence belongs to the accused party and on the day of occurrence only some altercation took place between the woman folk of the parties and no occurrence as mentioned by the complainant in his FIR took place, Both the parties are related interne and the pendency of the civil litigation between them is not denied. The offences with which the, petitioners are charged do not fall within the prohibitory clause of Section 497, Cr.P.C. I.O. Present before the Court has frankly conceded that the petitioners have already joined the investigation which is complete against them. He has further conceded that the custody of the petitioners is not required by him. The petitioners are statedly to be previously non convict and there is no record against them. In view of the above backdrop false implication of the petitioners in the instant case on account of malice cannot safely be ruled out.
5. In view of the above, the matter to the extent of petitioners has become one of further inquiry.
Resultantly this petition is allowed and the ad interim pre-arrest bail already granted to the petitioners vide order dated 02.09.2014 is confirmed subject to their furnishing fresh bail bonds in the sum of Rs, 50,000/- (Rupee fifty thousand only) each with one surety each in the like amount to the satisfaction of learned trial Court.
6. It is pertinent to mention here that the observations made supra are tentative in nature.
