ORDER

ASLAM RIAZ HUSSAIN, J.-The petitioners seek Leave to Appeal against the order of the High Court dated 19-5-1982, rejecting their bail application under section 426, Cr. P. C.

2. They were tried and convicted under sections 366/376, P. P. C. And sentenced to various terms of imprisonment. The maximum sentence awarded being more than 4 years' R. I. They filed an appeal before the High Court, which was admitted to hearing. They also applied for suspension of their sentence. That application was, however, dismissed -vide the impugned order, Hence the present petition.

3 We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and gone through the impugned order, but we are not persuaded to interfere with the discretion exercised by the learned Judge in Chamber.

The petition is, therefore, dismissed.
