ORDER

1. MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.--Leave to appeal has been sought from judgment, dated 16-3-1985 of the Lahore High Court; whereby in a murder case the conviction under' section 302 of James Masih and Ghulam Masih respondents was converted into 304 Part-I, P. P. C. And the sentence was accordingly reduced. Similarly, the conviction and sentence of Wilson and Pervez respondents were altered from 302 P.P.C. To 307 P.P.C.

2. This petition has been filed to challenge the acquittal under section 302, P. P. C. With a further prayer for enhancement of sentence.

3. The petition is barred by 207 days. We have perused the grounds mentioned in the application for condonation of delay which have not impressed us-. This being a case against acquittal, there must be very strong grounds for condonation of delay which do not exist. We accordingly dismiss the petition as time-barred.
