Cr.Bail 998/2024 (S.B.) Sindh High Court, Circuit at Hyderabad

Sindh High Court · 2025 · Before Amjad Ali Sahito

Through instant bail application, the applicant/accused namely, Rasool Bux seeks post-arrest bail in Crime No.21/2024, registered at Police Station ANF Hyderabad, for the offence under sections 6, 9-(1) 3 C CNS Act, 1997. Earlier the bail plea of the applicant/accused was declined by the learned MCTC-I/1st Additional Sessions Judge/Special Judge CNS Hyderabad vide order dated 17.08.2024.

2. The details of the FIR are included in the bail application and its attached copy, so there is no need to restate them here.

3. None present for the applicant. No intimation is received. Same was the position on last date of hearing. As such, I have no option except to decide instant bail application on the basis of material available on record with the assistance of learned Prosecutor ANF, who states that four kilograms of charas has been recovered from the possession of applicant. The offence with which the applicant is charged, its minimum punishable is nine years while maximum punishment is fourteen years, which does not fall within the prohibitory clause of section 497 (1) Cr.P.C. Consequently, instant criminal bail application is dismissed.

4. Needless to mention here that the observations made hereinabove are tentative in nature and would not influence the learned trial Court while deciding the case of the applicant on merits. JUDGE *Abdullah Channa/PS*
