3. Heard. I would not like to dilate upon the facts and merits of the case but the fact remains that Syed Muhammad Amin Shah petitioner No.1 is proclaimed offender and is not available in Pakistan. No general or special power of attorney has been placed on record by Syed Allah Rakha petitioner No.2 and even nothing has been mentioned in the whole writ petition that petitioner No.2 is authorized to file this writ petition, therefore, the same is dismissed. H.B.T./M-97/L Petition dismissed.
