Circumstances, even if the petitioner was not armed it would not have any bearing on the merits of his case

Likewise, in the case reported as Akhtar Ijaz Khan Yazdani v. The State (1998 SD 130), the plea of grant of post-arrest bail was rejected with the following observation:- 

“Petitioner is named in the FIR. He came to the spot alongwith his two sons who were armed and on his lalkara his sons launched attack which resulted in the death of first informant’s son. In such circumstances, even if the petitioner was not armed it would not have any bearing on the merits of his case because his sons were acting under his command.”
