ORDER

' The petitioner namely, Salamat A.I seeks post arrest bail in case FIR No. 01 dated 08.01.2015, registered under Section 161, P.P.C. Read with Section 5(2)47, P.C.A., at Police Station A.C.E., District Khanewal.

2. The precise allegations, against the petitioner, as per F.I.R. Are that he demanded and received illegal gratification of Rs. 50,000/-from the complainant.

3. Arguments heard. Record perused.

4. Demand and receipt of the above-mentioned amount, by the petitioner, from the complainant for preparation and submission of challan in case F.I.R. No. 424 dated 13.11.2014 registered under Sections 337-A.I)/337-F(v)/337-L(ii)/34, P.P.C., at Police Station Jahanian District Khanewal has been alleged. The above-mentioned amount was not recovered from the direct possession of the petitioner rather lying on the seat of vehicle wherein the petitioner as well as the complainant was boarded. The said fact to my mind is sufficient one to hold the case of the petitioner as of further inquiry. The offences charged against the petitioner do not fall within the prohibitory clause of Section 497, Cr.P.C. He is behind the bars and as such no more required for any further investigation in this case. His no previous criminal antecedent is available on the record maintained by the police.

5. Resultantly, the instant petition is allowed and petitioner is admitted to bail subject to furnishing bail bonds in the sum of .Rs. 1,00,000/-, with one surety, in the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court.
