Judgment text as reported

MUHAMMAD ASLAM VS State S. 497(2)---Bail---Further inquiry---Scope---Further inquiry is a question which must have some nexus with the result of the case for which a tentative assessment of material on record is to be considered for reaching a just conclusion---Case of further inquiry pre-supposes the tentative assessment, which may create doubt with respect to the involvement of accused in the crime---Object of trial is to make an accused face the trial, and not to punish an under trial prisoner---Basic idea is to enable the accused to answer criminal prosecution against him, rather than, let him rot behind the bars---Accused is entitled to expeditious access to justice, which includes a right to fair and expeditious trial without any unreasonable and inordinate delay.
