JUDGMENT
JUDGMENT ' GHULAM MUJADDID, J.--Muhammad Ali, his two brothers Khushi Muhammad and Mukhtar and Murad Ali and his three sons Rashid Ali, Haider All and Muhammad Sharif have filed this petition for leave to appeal against the judgment of the Lahore High Court, dated 7-12-1988 whereby their appeal against their conviction and sentence under section 307/326/324/148/149, P.P.C. Was dismissed. ' Before us learned counsel wanted to argue the matter on merits but we did not permit him to do so the reason being that he did not press the appeal on merits before the High Court. There the request was for the reduction of sentence because it was argued that the sentence awarded by the Magistrate was harsh. As is evident from the judgment of the High Court, this request was allowed and the sentence reduced. We cannot do anything more for the petitioners. Dismissed.
