ORDER

' This is an application for grant of bail to Gul Tayyaz Khan petitioner in a case under section 13(14 of the Offence of Zina (Enforcement of Hudood) Ordinance, 1979, registered at P.S. Qamar Mashani, District Mianwali, vide F.I.R. No, 40, dated 23-2-1987.

2. The prosecution case is that the co-accused of the petitioner namely Saif Ullah and Yaqoob had sold Mat. Rani to Bismillah co-accused and others through Mausam Khan co-accused for Rs, 26,000 with intent that she may be used for illicit intercourse. As for the petitioner it has been alleged that he was present alongwith the co-accused and Mst. Rani when they were arrested from Bazar Miran Shah.

3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that on the allegations levelled against the petitioner in the F.I.R. Accepted at its face value no offence punishable under section 13/14 of the Offence of Zina (Enforcement of Hudood) Ordinance, 1979 is made out against the petitioner. No one has appeared for the State to oppose this application.

4. I have coidered thbmissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner with care. I feel persuaded to agree with him. I find that there are no allegations of buying/selling of Mst. Rani against the petitioner and that he was only seen present with the co-accused and Mst. Rani when they were arrested from Bazar Miran Shah.

' For what has been said above, I am of the view that a case for grant of bail to the petitioner is made out. He is, therefore, allowed bail in, the sum of Rs, 20,000 with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction of Deputy Registrar (J) of this Court.
