LAHORE: The Lahore High Court on Wednesday dismissed a post arrest bail petition of a driver Muhammad Shafiq who had killed five persons in a road accident.

Earlier, the counsel of driver contended that the petitioner is in jail for a year and added the incident was an accident.

The prosecutor, however, contended that there are two more cases against the petitioner of traffic rules violations.

The court after hearing both the sides at length dismissed the bail petition.
