ORDER

RASHID AZIZ KHAN, J.- Earlier, the petitioner was allowed bail by this Court on 27.4.1992 in the same case for an offence under section 324/34/302 Qisas and Diyat Ordinance. In this case the occurrence took place on 2.9.1991. The allegation against the petitioner was that he was present at the spot empty- handed, and raised a lalkara, whereupon his coaccused armed with a pistol fired causing injuries to Muhammad Iqbal. Said Muhammad Iqbal because of the firearm injuries died on 6.4.1993, i.e., after about 20 months.

2. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner is not connected with the occurrence. The only role ascribed to him was that of proverbial lalkara when he was not armed.

Learned counsel for the complainant has vehomently argued by submitting that the petitioner knew that his co-accused was armed with pistol, that is why he raised the lalkara, which was effective to the extent that co-accused fired causing serious injuries which resuIted in his death.

3. After hearing both the sides at length. I feel it is a case of further inquiry because the petitioner was neither armed nor the injuries caused by his co- accused produced immediate resuIts. Cause of death in the postmortem examination report has not been given. In these circumstances, the petitioner is allowed bail provided he furnishes security in the sum of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees fifty thousand only) with two sureties, each in the like amount to the satisfaction of Assistant Commissioner/Duty Magistrate, Faisalabad.
