Judgment & Decree

CORNELIUS, C. J.‑The prosecution case on which the three petitioners stand convicted has been accepted by three Courts below, after proper scrutiny of the evidence in the first two Courts. The revision in the High Court was summarily rejected. Leave is sought to appeal further. The offence charged was that of causing hurt to Ali Muhammad, an acting lambardar, when he went to the petitioners to collect the land revenue due from them. It has been held proved on the evidence of Ali Muhammad, P. W. 1, Ghulam Qadir P. W. 2 and Allah Bakhsh, P. W.4 together with the police report and the proof of injuries. The defence plea was that the whole case was false. A number of witnesses were produced to support, but one of them admitted that the incident of assaust and injury had in fact occurred. Mr. Almas Ali is unable to adduce any reason why the case should be re‑examined in any respect. The petition is dismissed. Petition dismissed.
