ORDER

1. ' MUHAMMAD HALEEM, C.J.--This application seeks the restoration of the review petition dismissed for non-prosecution on 25th January, 1986, on the ground that none of the senior Counsel was present to prosecute the appeal. The Advocate-on-Record who was present also expressed his inability to argue the matter. The reason for their absence was that MrA.K. Brohi had to argue the case but he had not come from Karachi as he was busy before the Supreme Court. There was no explanation as to why the counsel who drew the petition was not able to come. However, that day was a Saturday and there was no Court sitting at Karachi. This being so, the Bench dismissing the petition took note of it and expressed that there was no impediment for the counsel to appear in the case on that day.

2. ' We do not see any reason to take a different view, and, accordingly, find no cause for setting aside that order.

3. ' The application is accordingly dismissed.
