' This is an application for grant of bail to Faiz Bakhsh, Aziz and Saida sons of Budhan, Rashid, Shabbir and Mujeed sons of Rasool Bakhsh and Riaz son of Kalu petitioners in case under sections 302/307, 326/325, 324/148/149, P.P.C. Registered at Police Station Shedani, vide F.I.R. No,140/1985, dated 22-9-1985.
2. The prosecution case is that the petitioners caused the death of Ghulam Fareed and injuries to the complainant on 21-9-1985 in the area of Mauza Chauhan of Police Station Shedani.
3. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that although more than 2 years have passed since arrest of the petitioners yet the trial has not been concluded despite directions given by this Court. Learned counsel for the State has opposed this application.
4. I have considered the matter. I find that the petitioners were arrested on 4-10-1985; that they earlier had applied for their release on bail on the ground of statutory delay in the conclusion of the trial but the same was rejected by me on 25-5-1988 with the directions that the trial Court should decide the case before 10-7-1988 but despite the directions given by this Court, no progress has been made in the trial of the case without any fault on the part of the petitioners.
5. That being the position, there is no option but to accept this application. The petitioners will be released on furnishing bail bonds in the sum of Rs,50,000 with one surety each in the like amount to the satisfaction of A.C./Duty Magistrate, Rahimyar Khan.
