2. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner, the learned Additional Prosecutor-General, Punjab appearing for the State and the complainant appearing in person and having gone through the record of investigation of the case we have noticed that according to the FIR the petitioner and his co-accused namely Asghar had allegedly been seen by some prosecution witnesses pressing the 'throat of Waqar Hussain deceased at the Dera of Asghar co-accused. The FIR itself shows that the petitioner had no motive to kill the deceased but the motive was directed A against an uncle of the deceased and the place of occurrence wag the Dera of Asghar co- accused whereas the petitioner did not live at that Dera. The FIR alleges a joint role of the petitioner and his co-accused and according to the complainant party's own version the eye-witnesses' happened to see the occurrence only per chance. During the initial investigation the petitioner had been, opined to be innocent and his name had taken place in column No, 2 of the Challan but we have been informed that after submission of the Challan before the trial court a fresh investigation had been conducted and after that fresh investigation the petitioner had been opined to be guilty.
In view of lack of motive vis-a-vis the present petitioner and a joint role having been attributed to him along with his co-accused coupled with the initial finding of innocence recorded by the investigating officer we have found the case against the petitioner to be a case calling for further inquiry into his guilt. This petition is, therefore, converted into an appeal and the same is allowed and consequently Nasar petitioner is admitted to bail in the above mentioned criminal case subject to furnishing bail bond in the sum of Rs,1,00,000/- (Rupees one hundred thousand only) with two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial court.
