ORDER

' Learned counsel for State submits that after the case had been made over to the Crimes Branch for further investigation, an application was made before the committing Court for staying the proceedings and for letting the Crimes Branch complete further investigation but the application was rejected by that Court. He admits that the recording of evidence has already stated in that Court and that two witnesses have actually been examined so far. This means that the learned Magistrate has already taken cognizance of the matter on the basis of the challan submitted in his Court notwithstanding the fact that the beading of the challan shows that it was "incomplete". For all purposes, there is no scope now for submission of another challan. In that challan dated 12-2-75 the petitioners Muhammad Sajjad Ghori and Shaikh Qaiser Iqbal are shown in column No,

2. The information furnished by the then learned counsel for State to this Court during the hearing of their previous application (Cr. M. No, 111-B/1975) that the names of the petitioners appeared in column No, 3 in the last of the challans submitted to the Court, was not correct.

2. The facts of the case have already been dealt with at length in the previous application and a repetition there is not necessary here. Bail is opposed on the ground that the petitioners are influential persons and are likely to intimidate the witnesses. There is no overt act attributed to the petitioners during the occurrence. They are not even said to be present at that time. The allegation against them is only of having conspired with Abdur Rahman alias Billi, co-accused. In the circumstances, the petitioners are granted bail on their furnishing a bond in the sum of Rs, 10,000 (Rupees ten thousand) each with two sureties in the like sum each to the satisfaction of the Assistant Commissioner, Sialkot. Copy of the order be supplied dasti on payment of usual charges.
