                   The facts in brief necessary for disposal of instant Crl.Revision application are that the applicant stood surety for accused Ayaz Ahmed for his release on bail, on his execution of bail bond in sum of Rs.300,000/-; it was forfeited by learned trial Court on account of his non appearance; consequently, the NBW for his arrest and notice against the applicant was issued; in compliance whereof, accused Ayaz Ahmed was apprehended by the police while applicant furnished his reply to the notice; it was not found satisfactory, then he was imposed penalty of Rs.300,000/- by learned 5th Additional Sessions Judge, Shikarpur, vide order dated 24.01.2023 which is impugned by him before this Court by preferring the instant Crl.Revision Application.

            It is stated by learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant executed bail bond for release of accused Ayaz Ahmed on humanitarian grounds and for no monitory gain, therefore, he is to be dealt with leniently by reducing the penal amount; which is not opposed by learned Addl.P.G for the State.

            Heard arguments and perused the record.

            The absence of accused Ayaz Ahmed before learned trial Court it is said was not willful but beyond his control on account of tribal dispute; on arrest he has again been admitted to bail and now is attending trial Court regularly; all these circumstances are calling for a lenient action against the applicant. Consequently, the amount of Rs.300,000/- which is imposed upon him as penalty is reduced to Rs.100,000/-, to be paid by him within one month, hereinafter. 

                        The instant Crl.Revision Application is disposed of accordingly.
