1. ' ABDUL KADIR SHAIKH, J.--This is a petition for leave to appeal from the order of a learned Judge of Baluchistan High Court rejecting petitioner's request for bail pending trial of a case against him and co-accused under section 302/34, P.P.C. Earlier petitioner's request in this behalf was rejected by the Additional Sessions Judge III, Quetta for the reason that one of the prosecution witnesses, namely Abdul Baqi had attributed the murder of Wali, deceased in the case, to petitioner. Learned Single Judge in the High Court rejected petitioner's request for the reasons which may be stated in his own words as under: "I have gone through available record and considered the arguments advanced by learned counsel for parties. For the present there is categoric statement of P.W. Abdul Baqi directly implicating the petitioner for the commission of offence alleged against him. However effect of delay in recording his statement cannot be determined at this stage. Similarly evaluation of his statement by comparing with statements of other witnesses will also not be justified at this juncture. Therefore in my opinion presently it is, not a fit case for grant of bail, accordingly petition is rejected."
2. ' We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner on the points raised by him in support of the petition and gone through the record before us. In view of the weight of evidence of at least one eye-witness, learned Judge in the High Court rightly refused to grant petitioner's request for release on bail for the reasons with which no exception can be taken. The petition has no merit and is dismissed.
