ORDER

' RANA BHAGWANDAS, J.--- Petitioner-Judicial Officer is aggrieved by adverse remarks and strictures passed by a Division Bench of the Sindh High Court against him in Constitution Petition No,D-113 of 2006 arising out of an election petition.

2. We have heard Mr. Ghulam Qadir Jatoi, learned Advocate Supreme Court for the petitioner while Dr. Qazi Khalid Ali, learned Additional Advocate-General Sindh has entered appearance on behalf of respondent No,1, pursuant to the notice, but he has not prepared the brief.

3. Precise grievance of the petitioner appears to be that the constitution petition could have been conveniently and justifiably decided without condemning and criticizing the act and conduct of the petitioner, who has been punished unheard and without any notice. Reliance has been placed on the judgment of this Court reported Muhammad Punhal v. Abdul Wahid Abbasi 2003 SCM R 1406.

4. As the impugned judgment is tendered by a Division Bench and career of a Judicial Officer is involved in this petition, we grant leave to appeal against the part of the judgment relating to strictures against the petitioner with the direction that appeal, arising out of this petition, shall be listed for hearing within six months.
