Waris entered the house of the petitioner and stole away a licensed Rifle (8 mm) alongwith other articles and his continuous supplications finally resulted in registration of a case vide first information report bearing No.430 of 2000, dated 6-8-2000 and another F.I.R. Bearing No.417 of 8-8--2000 was lodged under the Arms Ordinance. However, one of the accused named Waris has not been arrested as a result of connivance with the S.H.O. And A.S.I. Of Police Post Rasool. Entries of the petitioner before S. H. O.
