' This is a petition for bail on behalf of Shaukat Mahmood, petitioner who is involved in a case registered under sections 379 'd 336, P.P.C.
2. Bail is claimed on the ground that the case of the petitioner is on better footing than that of co- accused Asghar who has since been released on bail by this Court vide order dated 1-2-1987, passed in Criminal Miscellaneous No, 56-B of 1987.
3. Muhammad Asghar accused was allowed bail mainly on the groun that in the recovery memo it had been stated that Hadayat Ullah, complainant had produced the stolen money (Rs,151) before the Investigating Officer which had been earlier recovered from Shaukat Mahmood (petitioner herein) but in the F.I.R. It was stated that currency notes of the value of Rs, 1561 were recovered from Muhammad Iqbal. The case of the petitioner is at par with that of co--accused Muhammad Asghar.
