            ------------------------------------

            Applicant/accused Muhammd Mumtaz son of Sabir Ali seeks protective bail in FIR No.375/2022, registered at P.S. Saeedabad, Keamari, Karachi for offence under Sections 6/9(c) of the Control of Narcotic Substances Act, 1997.

 

            Learned counsel for applicant submits that applicant/accused is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in this case due to mala intentions and ulterior motives; that applicant/accused is a law abiding citizen and intends to surrender before the trial Court concerned but apprehends his arrest at the hands of concerned police in order to humiliate and disgrace him.

 

Without touching the merits of the case, protective bail is granted to applicant/accused Muhammd Mumtaz son of Sabir Ali, for a period of four (4) days from today, subject to his furnishing solvent surety in the sum of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand) and P.R bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Nazir of this Court. Applicant is directed to surrender before the trial Court concerned in the aforesaid period and join the trial forthwith. This order shall cease to have its effect after expiry of four days from today or whenever the applicant surrenders before the trial Court, which one occurs earlier. It is made clear, in case, applicant fails to surrender before the trial Court in the aforesaid period, his bail bond shall stand automatically forfeited.

 

            The instant criminal bail application is accordingly disposed of.
