ORDER

' SAAD SAOOD JAN, J.-- The petitioners were constables on the establishment of the Superintendent of Police Faisalabad. On 11-6-1983, they went on strike and marched through the bazars of Faisalabad raising slogans against the District Magistrate. They were served with show-cause notices by the Superintendent of Police and heard in person. They were dismissed from service.

They filed appeals before the Deputy Inspector-General of Police which were dismissed. They then approached the Service Tribunal but without any success. They now seek leave to appeal from this Court.

2. After hearing the learned counsel who appeared on behalf of the petitioners we are of the view that no substantial question of law of public importance arises for our consideration. The petitioners were given opportunity to defend themselves by the Superintendent of Police. They did not file any written reply to the show-cause notices and when they appeared before the Superintendent of Police in person they merely begged to be pardoned. These arc therefore, not fit cases for interference by this Court. Leave is refused.
