' The petitioner has applied for pre-arrest bail in a case registered against him vide F.I.R. No, 51, dated 17-12-1988 under section 420/468/471/406, P.P.C. At Police Station 'A' Division Kasur.
2. It is alleged in the F.I.R. By the complainant that he deals in business of coal and the present petitioner supplies coal to brick kiln after taking the same from him. It is alleged that this business relationship developed further and petitioner got coal on credit to the extent of Rs,5,420. The payment of this amount was postponed on one pretext or the other. Thereafter, it is alleged that settlement of account took place between the parties and an amount of Rs,48,730 was shown balance towards the petitioner. Out of the same Rs,10,000 was paid in cash and for the rest of the amount two cheques were issued allegedly by the petitioner. However, those cheques were dishonoured due to the reason that no amount was available according to the complainant in the account of the petitioner.
3. The petitioner has applied for pre-arrest bail on the ground that the mere reading of F.I.R.
Discloses the civil dispute between the parties and he has been moved mala fide in the criminal litigation. He has also argued that there is a delay of more than 8 months in the registration of the case and the complainant has only involved him out of ulterior motive just to wreck his business relationship. It is evident that the petitioner earlier moved the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Kasur but he could not pursue his bail application because of his indisposition for which he had appended the medical certificate. Without dilating upon the merits of case I admit the petitioner to pre-arrest bail till 8th of April, 1989 to enable him to move the learned Sessions Judge, Kasur provided he furnishes bail bond in the sum of Rs,50,000 with two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of A.C./Duty Magistrate, Kasur. This bail order will ensure till 8th April, 1989.
