1. JUSTICE AFTAB HUSSAIN, CHARIMAN.-----Recently this Court has been given the power of review.

The Court have not framed any rules so far but we make it clear that the power granted to us is in the nature of discretion to interfere or- not. We would like to be governed by the principle of Cr. P. C. In matters of review of criminal cases. For this reason we would not like to interfere in exercise of review jurisdiction with our decisions given in criminal appeals. In fact the review jurisdiction has been conferred upon this Court in connection with the matters in Shariat Petitions. This petition is therefore dismissed.
