Appeal No. 60/78 Date of Judgment:1983-06-20 Reported As: 1983 SCMR 97 Result: Petition dismissed Judgment ORDER NASIM HASAN SHAH, J.-This petition is directed against the judgment dated 28-4-1979 passed by a Division Bench of the. Lahore High Court (Bahawalpur Circuit, Bahawalpur) in Criminal Appeal No. 60 of 1978/BWP and Murder Reference No. 15 of 1978/BWP. By the above judgment and order the High Court was pleased to accept the appeal of Respondents Nos. 1 and 2 and acquit them of the charge of murdering Rashid Ahmad. By this petition for special leave to appeal, reversal of the order of acquittal passed by the High Court is prayed for. We have heard Mr. A. K. Tayyub, in support of this petition, who in half-hearted address tried to criticise the judgment of the High Court, but after hearing him we find that no principle of law or any material aspect of the evidence or circumstance has been ignored by the High Court and no ground exists for interference. This petition must, therefore, fail and is, accordingly, dismissed.
