The applicants are seeking bail in a case where they are accused of assaulting and injuring the complainant along with two others at a toll plaza. The prosecution alleges that the applicants assaulted the complainant with an iron rod and kicks after an argument about a previous court case regarding the toll plaza. However, the applicants claim that no such incident took place and the complainant has falsely implicated them due to being influential and wanting to pressure the toll staff. They request bail on the grounds that the prosecution's story is doubtful and unbelievable, there is no evidence against the applicants, and further detention is unnecessary as the investigation is complete.

FACTS
The brief facts of prosecution case as alleged in the FIR
are that on 02.03.2020 at 1845 hours, complainant Syed Jalal Shah appeared at PS Keenjhar Lake and lodged his report alleging therein that he reside at above given address and is a landlord. On 02.03.2020, he along with Nazir Ahmed s/o Shafi Mohammad Jakhro, Sartaj s/o Abdul Hameed Turk and Sohail s/o Abdul Fattah Umrani boarding in their Honda Civic Car ADL-477, were coming from Thatta to Keenjhar. When at 1610 hours, they reached NHW Hyderabad-Thatta road near Chillya Toll Plaza, the toll staff namely everyone (1) Lal Mohammad Sodho (2) Ghulam Nabi Gabol (3) Abdul Haq Sodho and two unknown persons, who can be identified if seen again, who lowered the stick and stopped the complainant party saying that as to why they filed case against their toll before Honorable High Court of Sindh Karachi and why they protest against them, adding that they won’t be spared. Meanwhile accused Lal Mohammad Sodho abused and instigated co-accused to grab and complainant party and not to spare them, meanwhile accused Ghulam Nabi Gabol caused straight iron rod blow to complainant with intention to kill him, who placed his hand in defense and the blow hit him in his right hand little finger and other accused also abused and caused kicks and fist blows, meanwhile Abdul Sattar Qureshi and Natho Brohi also reached there who beseeched the accused and rescued complainant who went to PS Keenjhar, obtained letter for treatment and after treatment the complainant appeared at PS and lodged FIR that at the instance of accused Lal Mohammad, accused Ghulam Nabi s/o Abdul Khalique Gabol and Abdul Haq s/o Mohammad Hashim Sodho r/o at present Chillya and two unknown persons, in furtherance of their common intention, wrongfully restrained them, assaulted and injured them so also abused them. That, police registered the FIR, conducted usual investigation and arrested the applicants/accused who are confined at Sub Jail Thatta, hence this bail application.
GROUNDS
1. That, there are no reasonable grounds to believe that
the Applicants/accused have committed the offence with which they stand charged. 2. That, there is inordinate delay of more than two hours in lodging the FIR without any plausible explanation while the PS is situated at a distance of 9/10 kilometers from the alleged place of incident which shows due deliberation and consultation on the part of complainant and false implication of applicants/accused in such type of case can not be ruled out. 3. That, in fact no such incident took place and entire prosecution story is false, baseless and managed one. The real fact is that the complainant is District President of Sindh Taraqi Pasand Party (STP). He is a highly influential person. On the day of incident, he along with another activist of STP namely Imtiaz Samoon was passing from Chillya Toll Plaza and they were stopped by the toll staff and demanded toll tax which annoyed the complainant party, who attacked upon the toll plaza and the complainant broke the glass of toll plaza with his fist and sustained injury at his right hand little finger but by using his undue influence and with the help of his journalists and social media, pressurized the local police and got lodged the instant false FIR against the applicants who are innocent and did not commit any offence (the relevant video clips and posts shall be presented with the permission of this Honorable court in order to bring real facts on record). 4. That, the story narrated in the FIR, is false, managed and unbelievable in the eyes of law. It is unbelievable that the applicants being poor employees would dare to commit such alleged offence. 5. That, section 324 PPC is misapplied as no repetition of alleged injury is mentioned in the FIR nor any injury is alleged on any vital part of body to show the intention of murder, however the remaining sections are bailable. 6. That, no such incident took place at all as alleged in the FIR and the complainant lodged this false case with malafide intention and for ulterior motives. 7. That, in the above circumstances, the case against the applicants/accused is one of further enquiry u/s 497 (2) Cr.P.C and the prosecution story is full of doubts and it is settled law that benefit of doubt must be extended to accused even at bails stage. 8. That, the alleged offence does not exclusively fall within the purview of section 497 (1) Cr.P.C. 9. That, the accused persons had remained in custody of police, despite that, nothing was recovered from them, as such, the virtual investigation has been completed and the applicants/accused are not more required to police for investigation purpose. 10. That, there is difference between ocular and medical version, which makes the case one of further enquiry. 11. That, further detention of applicants/accused would not serve any useful purpose but hardship for their family as they are bread winning members of their family. 12. That, the basic concept of bail is that no innocent person’s liberty is to be curtailed, until and unless proved otherwise. The presumption in law is that every accused is innocent until his guilt is proved. 13. That, the Applicants are local persons and there is no any apprehension of their abscontion. 14. That, the Applicants are ready to furnish solvent surety to the satisfaction of this Honourable Court. 15. That, further grounds will be argued at the time of final arguments with permission of this Honourable court.
