ISLAMABAD<\/strong>: The Islamabad High Court has rejected the post-arrest bail plea of an accused in an attempted murder case, ruling that firing a weapon and hitting the target clearly demonstrates intent to kill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Justice Khadim Hussain Soomro issued the written verdict, observing that an accused cannot seek leniency on the grounds of poor aim once the trigger has been pulled and the shot has struck the victim. The court held that, considering the available evidence and the gravity of the offence, the accused was not entitled to bail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the order, the suspect, identified as Fawad alias Mani, is accused of opening fire on the complainant\u2019s wife and son, injuring both. Police records state that the complainant\u2019s son sustained three bullet wounds in the incident, while the weapon allegedly used in the crime was recovered from the accused during investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The court further noted that shifting injured persons to hospital before lodging a case is a natural course of action and a delay of a few hours does not affect the prosecution\u2019s case. It added that under Section 324 of the Pakistan Penal Code, no distinction exists between targeting vital or non-vital parts of the body, as the direction of a bullet cannot be fully controlled by the attacker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police files also revealed that four other cases had previously been registered against the accused. The court concluded that the material on record was sufficient to connect him with the offence and dismissed the bail application, clarifying that the observations were tentative and should not influence the trial court\u2019s final decision on merit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
