1. JUDGMENT RAJA AFRASIAB KHAN, J.- On 26.4.1994, a case under sections 324/148/149 PPC was registered on the statement of Mst. Zubaida Bibi against the petitioners and others with police station Saddar, Farooqabad, District Sheikhupura; This petition under section 498 Cr.P.C, has been moved for admission of the petitioners to bail before arrest in the aforesaid case on the ground that there was po evidence to connect them with the commission of the crime and that they were not found guilty by the police. It is further submitted that SJP. Sheikhupura was himself conducting the investigation and that there was every likelihood that the would also come to the conclusion that The petitioners were innocent. Learned state counsel has opposed the petition on the ground that there was sufficient evidence to demonstrable that the petitioners participated in the commission of the crime. After hearing the learned counsel for the parties and reading the record with care, I have come to the conclusion that this is not a case of further enquiry because the petitioners were mentioned in the FIR with specific role in the commission of the crime. Faruq while armed with a gun injured Mst. Zubaida Bibi. The other petitioner Bashir also fired from his gun and injured the complainant on her thigh. This incident was witnessed by Akber Ali and Ghulam Haider, PWs. The contention that the petitioners are innocent cannot be given effect to at this stage because the investigation is still being conducted by the highest police officer of the district. There is, prima fade, a case against the petitioners that they have committed an offence which falls under the prohibitory clause. No case for interference has been made out. This being so, the ad interim pre-arrest to the petitioners on 24.7.1994 is hereby recalled. The bail petition is, therefore, dismissed being without any substance.
