Judgment ORDER ' ASLAM RIAZ HUSSAIN, J.-This petition by Muhammad Aslam is directed against the acquittal of Sher Ahmad, and Mumtaz alias Taj, who were accused alongwith one Muhammad Akram for the murder of Ashraf. Muhammad Akram accused, however, absconded and the case of the two respondents was separated. They were tried by the learned Sessions Judge, Attock but were acquitted by him vide judgment, dated 23-9-1982. The petitioner filed a revision against their acquittal before the High Court which was dismissed. ' Hence the present petition. 2. We have heard the petitioner's counsel. He has not raised any question of law but only wants us to reappraise the evidence. He has not been able to put forward any good reason why we should interfere in the concurrent finding of fact arrived at by the learned Courts below by reappraising the evidence afresh. The petition is, therefore, dismissed. 3. It may, however, be clarified that dismissal of this petition shall not have any effect on the case of Muhammad Akram, the third accused who has absconded and has not yet been apprehended.
