40-APPA-296-2017.doc Heard learned advocate for the applicant / original accused no.2 as well as the learned advocate appearing for the original complainant / appellant, as also the learned APP. The applicant herein i.e. original accused no.2 came to be acquitted of offence alleged against him and the complainant has lodged an appeal challenging the acquittal. The applicant / original accused no.2 is desirous of applying for passport. I see no hurdle in his request for making an application for getting a passport.
