' State through Advocate-General, N.-W.F.P., Peshawar has filed instant application (Criminal Miscellaneous No,1477 of 2001) under subsection (5) of section 497, Cr.P.C. Seeking cancellation of bail of Laiq Khan respondent granted to him by Sessions Judge, Karak vide his order, dated 20-9- 2001 Police Station Banda Daud Shah under. Section 13, Arms Ordinance, Surrender of Illicit Arms Act, 1991.
2. On 21-8-2001 complainant Hussain Shah, S.H.O. Police Station Banda Daud Shah, on receipt of information about a dispute in between Laiq Khan respondent and Roghan Badshah, residents of Mir Kalam Banda, over womenfolk, reached the spot i,e, Village Mir Kalam Banda. The respondent came out from his house duly armed with .303 bore rifle. On seeing the police party, the respondent tried to run away from the spot but he was chased and overpowered by the police. A rifle of .303 bore alongwith four live rounds was recovered from his possession.
3. Assailing the impugned order, learned State Counsel vehemently contended that sufficient material was brought on record to connect the respondent with the guilt and as such the learned Sessions Judge, had no justifiable reason to accept the application of the respondent and admit him to bail. The learned counsel maintained that the impugned order has been passed in a mechanical manner without application of judicial mind and thus, cannot be sustained.
4. Having heard the arguments of learned State Counsel in the light of the material on file I find that the bail granting order is neither perverse nor illegal warranting interference of this Court. It needs no reitration that once a Court of competent jurisdiction passes bail order, very strong and exceptional grounds are required to cancel the same. The bail can be cancelled where the person on bail repeats the offence, hampers the investigation, makes some efforts to tamper with the evidence, commits some acts of violence against the police and prosecution witnesses or manages to flee away from the country or beyond the control of sureties.

Muhammad Azam and another 2001 PCr.LJ 1461.
13 ' Having held that competent Court has granted the bail to the respondent at its discretion which does not appear to be fanciful, perverse or arbitrary, I am of the view that the trial Court has exercised its discretion properly which warrants no interference of this Court. The application fails which is hereby dismissed in limine.
