ORDER

MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.--Leave to appeal has been sought from judgment, dated 29-7-1980 of the Lahore High Court; whereby a writ petition arising out of a land settlement case, was dismissed.

2. The land was allotted in the name of the petitioners in village Sambli as also in another village Wadala Bechi Ragh. Complaints having been received against the petitioner in respect of the allotment made in his, name, he appeared before the Settlement Authorities and categorically stated that the allotment made in village Wadala was without his knowledge and was based on misrepresentation and thus was liable to be cancelled. Accordingly the said land was cancelled.

Despite his earlier stand disclaiming the allotment in village Wadala he challenged the cancellation thereof in the Lahore High Court through a Constitutional petition and the same having been dismissed; he has now sought leave to appeal.

3. Learned counsel has vehemently contended that the petitioner never made any statement which was attributed to him. As is noted above similar plea were raised before the High Court but the same was not accepted.

4. We after hearing the learned counsel at some length in this behalf agree with the judgment of the High Court that the petitioner cannot escape the consequences of his own admission. That being so this petition is dismissed.
