NAIMATULLAH PHULPOTO, J.- Applicant/accused Muhammad Moosa seeks post arrest bail in Crime No. 211/2023 for offences under Sections 147/148/149/153/186/353/427 PPC read with Section 7 of ATA 1997 registered at P.S Shahrah-e-Faisal, Karachi. Prior to this applicant/accused applied for bail before learned Judge, ATC-XV Karachi, the same was rejected vide order dated 28.08.2023.

2.         It is mainly contended that co-accused Muhammad Kamran and others have already been granted bail in Cr. B.A.No 1253/2023 and case of the applicant/accused is identical to that of co-accused. Addl. P.G concedes to the contention raised by learned counsel for the applicant/accused.

3.         Since role of the applicant/accused is identical to that of co-accused to whom concession of bail has already been extended, in our considered view, the applicant/accused is also entitled for grant of bail on the rule of consistency. Resultantly, applicant/accused Muhammad Moosa son of Gul Hassan is granted bail subject to his furnishing solvent surety in the sum of Rs.100,000/- (Rupees One Lac only) and P.R bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial Court.

4.         Needles to mention here that the observations made hereinabove are tentative in nature, the trial Court shall not be influenced by the same while deciding the case of the applicant/accused on merits.
