1. A case is registered against the petitioner under section 11 of the Hadud Ordinance, 1979. The allegation against him is that he had taken liquor. He is a previous convict also in respect of the same offence. But the punishment prescribed for the said offence is three years and, therefore, I do not see any reason why he should not be admitted to bail. In that view of the matter, the petitioner is admitted to bail subject to his furnishing security in the sum of Rs. 5,000 (Rupees five thousand only) with and surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of Assistant Commissioner, Faisalabad.
2. This petition stands disposed of.
