(Copy of age assessment report dated 29-04-09 is annexed herewith as Annexure-C)

11. That the petitioner seeks the cancellation of bail of respondent No.1 inter-alia on the followings:-

GROUNDS

a. That the learned ASJ declined the cancellation petition of the petitioner on surmises and conjectures.
b. That there is sufficient material on record to connect the respondent No.1 with the commission of crime and specific role was attributed to him in the FIR.
c. That the respondent No.1 is nominated in the FIR with specific role, hence the order dated 29-10-2009 of the learned ASJ Rawalpindi is without any lawful justification.

e. That the learned ASJ Rawalpindi did not consider the valuable evidence available on the record.
f. That there is no malafide on the part of the present petitioner and enmity of the police with the respondent No.1 was pointed out, hence the respondent No.1 is not entitled to any concession of bail.
g. That there is reasonable chance for tampering with prosecution evidence by the respondent No.1, thus he is not entitled to any concession of bail.
h. That there is the reasonable chance of absconsion of the respondent No.1.
i. That the learned ASJ Rawalpindi also ignored the all other important aspect of the case, which is necessary for rejection of the bail.
