It is alleged that on 02.12.2014 at 9.30 pm, the petitioner, along with A1 and A2 committed trespass into the room wherein the defacto complainant is residing on rent. The petitioner stood as guard at the door of the room and A1 and A2 went inside with a knife and gold chain weighing two and half sovereigns and a gold finger ring weighing three gms. worn by the defacto complainant were snatched away by them by keeping the defacto complainant at knife point. When the defacto complainant attempted to resist, he

The petitioner has been in custody for the period from 03.12.2014 onwards.
4.
Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Public Prosecutor. Perused the CD.
5.
The learned public prosecutor has pointed out that A2 is at large and is yet to be arrested. The allegations against the petitioner are very grave and serious. Investigation of this case is not over. Considering the seriousness of the allegations against the petitioner and the present stage of investigation, I am of the view that the petitioner is not entitled to be enlarged on bail. In the result, this Bail Application is dismissed. Sd/- B.KEMAL PASHA, JUDGE
