JUDGMENT
JUDGMENT SAAD SAOOD JAN, J.--The petitioner, Mubarik alias Marri was convicted by the Additional Sessions Judge, Faisalabad of an offence under section 302 of the Pakistan Penal Code and was sentenced to death. His conviction and sentence were maintained and confirmed by the High Court. He preferred two petitions for special leave to appeal. One was directly filed in this Court through counsel and the other was submitted through jail. Unfortunately when the petition directly filed in this Court came up for hearing the jail petition was not brought to our notice. The former petition was dismissed on merits after the petitioner's counsel had been given a hearing. The second petition preferred through jail is barred by 58 days. In the circumstances we would dismiss this petition as well.
