AMJAD ALI SAHITO, J:- Through instant criminal bail application, the applicant Dilbar Ali seeks pre arrest bail in Crime No.39/2022, registered at Police Station Market under sections489-F PPC, whereas the bail plea of the applicant/accused was dismissed by learned 3rd Additional Sessions Judge, Larkana vide order dated 10.5.2022.
2. Per learned counsel, the applicant/accused is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in this case by the complainant; that infact only Rs.80,000/- are outstanding against the applicant but the complainant malafidely with alternate motive presented the cheque of Rs.10,0000/-(Rupees Ten Lac) in the Bank which was dishonoured on the ground of insufficient funds are available in the account.
3. From the perusal of record, it reflects that interim pre-arrest bail was granted to the applicant by learned III-Additional Sessions Judge, Larkana in 3rd Bail Application No.573 of 2022 and subsequently vide order dated 23.4.2022 the bail application of the applicant was dismissed and interim pre arrest bail granted to the applicant was recalled. Being aggrieved the applicant filed pre arrest bail before this Court being Cr. B. A.No.S-292 of 2022, which was granted to applicant and the matter was adjourned for 27.6.2022, but the applicant was called absent and learned counsel for the applicant sought time to explain the failure of submission of bond. From the perusal of record it reveals in Cr. B.A.No.573 of 2022 it is noted that this is third bail application which shows that he has no interest to appear before the trial court. Since on 27.6.2022 the applicant failed to appear before this Court when his application was dismissed thereafter, he did not appear before the trial court to surrender which shows that he has no apprehension of his arrest at the hands of police. Furthermore, there is outstanding amount against the applicant/accused and for which he has given cheque of Rs.10,0000/-(Rupees Ten Lac) to the complainant and when it was presented before the Bank it was dishonoured on account of insufficient funds which shows that applicant was aware that there is insufficient funds in the account despite that he issued the cheque which shows that he has committed cheating and fraud with the complainant. For grant of interim pre arrest bail malafide and ulterior motives are essential grounds. In this case learned counsel for the applicant/accused has not pleaded any malafide, ill-will or enmity on the part of the complainant to believe that applicant has been implicated falsely in this case. Further the applicant is enjoying from 27.6.2022 and the police has not arrested him. Accordingly, applicant has failed to make out a case for pre-arrest bail. Resultantly, instant Criminal Bail Application is dismissed.
