Judgment text as reported

Mudassar Hanif VS State S. 497---azad Penal Code (XLV of 1860), Ss. 302(b), 452 & 109---Qatl-i-amd, trespass, abetment---Bail, dismissal of---allegation against the petitioner-accused was that he committed murder of his wife and mother-in-law by firing---accused/petitioner in daylight entered into the house of the deceased persons, made indiscriminate firing, murdered two innocent women with premeditation which obviously shocked and affected the family of the victims and frightened the public at large---Thus, the petitioner/accused could safely be declared as a dangerous and desperate criminal because he had committed the occurrence fearlessly---Furthermore, record also revealed that eight crime empties were recovered from the scene of occurrence which prima facie revealed that he fired multiple shots which was expected to create a sense of fear in the neighbourhood, hence such behaviour of the accused also disentitled him from the concession of bail---Moreso, the statements of material prosecution witnesses had been recorded and only the statements of three witnesses were (left) to be recorded, thus on that score too, the accused was not entitled to get the concession of bail even on statutory ground because if the trial of the case was at the verge of conclusion the concession of bail was normally not expected to be awarded even on statutory grounds---Bail petition was dismissed, in circumstances.
