Intelligence and Investigation-Customs, Karachi for offences under Sections

It
is submitted that the petitioners/accused are at Dubai and are prepared to surrender

apprehend arrest at the hands of Customs Authorities. Air-Tickets are annexed
to the petition, which reflects that the petitioners/accused are

of the case, petitioners/accused Muhammad

Abdul Kareem are granted protective-cum-transitory
bail for a period of six (6) days
from today, subject to their furnishing solvent surety in the sum of Rs.100,000/-
(Rupees One Hundred Thousand) each and
P.R bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of the Nazir of this Court. Petitioners/accused
are directed to surrender before the trial Court concerned
in the aforesaid period. This order shall cease to have its effect after expiry
of six days from today or whenever the petitioners/accused surrender before the
trial court, which one occurs earlier. In case, petitioners fail to surrender
before the trial Court within the aforesaid period, their bail bond shall stand
automatically forfeited. Let the copy of this order be sent to the Secretary,
Ministry of Interior, Government of Pakistan, Islamabad, by fax for compliance.
