1. MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.--These four petitions are directed against four judgments dated 28-5-1986 of the Lahore High Court in four appeals arising out of cases of corruption. The appeals were disposed of by substantially reducing the sentences awarded to the petitioner on a concession made by his learned counsel that he would not press the appeals on merits and would urge only for the reduction of sentence. The learned Judge, however, also remarked that there was nothing in favour of the convict, in so far as the merits are concerned.
2. The learned counsel now appearing in support of these petitions initially stated that his client namely, the petitioner herein has instructed him to urge that the concession made by his counsel in the High Court was unjustified. When told that the Court would not accept a mere verbal statement against the conduct of a lawyer and that there should have an affidavit that the concession made by him was without instructions, the learned counsel did not press the petitions any further. They are accordingly dismissed.
