164/2024 Cr.Bail Zeeshan (Applicant) V/S The State (Respondent) Sindh High Court
Bench: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Adnan-ul-Karim Memon(Author) Order Date: 04-OCT-24
The law on bail is now well settled. In cases where the offense falls outside the non-prohibitory clause of section 497(1) of Cr.P.C., bail is to be granted as a matter of course, and rejection of the same is an exception. Where, however, an offense falls within the prohibitory clause, bail can only be granted if the court concludes that there is no reasonable ground for believing that the accused has committed a non-bailable offense or where an accused makes out a case of further inquiry into the guilt of the accused or in case the accused is under the age of 16 years or is sick or infirm.
