Case Number Criminal Miscellaneous No. 1624-BC of 2010
Decision Date Jan 27, 2011
Hearing Date
Decision The Islamabad High Court, presided by Justice Muhammad Anwar Khan Kasi, ruled on the cancellation of bail for the respondent Nasir Jamil. The court found that the petitioner was the main victim, having been defrauded of Rs. 1,350,000 by the respondent under the pretense of sending his brother abroad. The court emphasized that the offences in question are serious and non-bailable. It noted that the trial court had not sufficiently considered the petitioner's claims and the nature of the offences. The bail granted to the respondent was deemed inappropriate given the circumstances, leading to its cancellation and the order for the respondent to be taken into custody.
Summary In the case of Criminal Miscellaneous No. 1624-BC of 2010, the Islamabad High Court dealt with serious allegations of fraud and cheating under the Criminal Procedure Code, Emigration Ordinance, Passports Act, and Pakistan Penal Code. The main issue revolved around the cancellation of bail for the respondent, who was accused of defrauding a victim of a substantial amount of money. The court underscored the importance of protecting innocent individuals from financial exploitation and emphasized that the discretion of the trial court must be exercised with caution. The decision highlights the court's role in ensuring justice is served, particularly in cases involving vulnerable individuals seeking assistance for emigration. The ruling serves as a critical reminder of the legal protections available against fraudulent practices and the necessity for judicial oversight in bail decisions.
