ORDER

ASLAM RIAZ HUSSAIN, J.--Karim Bakhsh who is accused alongwith some others in a case under section 302/307/149, P.P.C. Was convicted on both the charges. He preferred an appeal against his conviction and sentence and also applied for suspension of his sentence. The last mentioned application was dismissed by the High Court vide the impugned order, dated 4-11-1984.

Hence the present petition.

2. We issued notice to the-State and have heard learned counsel for both sides.

We notice that all the co-accused who had been attributed injuries to the deceased and were convicted of the same offences as the both have been released on bail under section 426, Cr.P.C.

But the petitioner's application for bail was rejected, on the ground that although he was not attributed any injury to the deceased yet he had been additionally convicted under section 307, P.P.C. For causing injuries to Alam Din P. W.

3. Considering all the facts of this case and without making any observation which may prejudice the case of either side he think this is a fit case for grant of bail to the petitioner. We, therefore, convert the petition into appeal, allow the same and grant bail to the petitioner in the sum of Rs.20,000 with to sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of Assistant Commissioner, Minchinabad.
