4. Date of hearing : 9th October 1968. MUHAMMAD YAQUB ALI, J.‑We agree with the learned Judges in the High Court that the petitioner who had entered into a compromise with Mst. Jafferi Begum, respondent, in regard to apportionment of the property in dispute between its various occupants was debarred from invoking the writ jurisdiction of the High Court. Indeed he does not lay claim to the disputed property, but attempted to act pro bono publico on the allegation that Mst. Jafferi had not filed a proper Settlement form and was not in omsession of the property transferred to her. The High Court has, in the circumstances, rightly dismissed the writ petition filed by the petitioner to call in question the transfer in favour of Mst. Jafferi Begum. The petition for leave to appeal is dismissed. Leave refused.
