The learned Anti-Corruption Special Judge found the accused guilty of the offence, convicted him under section 161, P.P.C. Read with section 5(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act 1947 and sentenced him to one year's R.I. With fine of Rs,500 or in default of payment of fine to suffer further RI for one month, vide his order dated 21-6-1989.
2. ' The accused petitioner filed appeal against his conviction and sentence before the Peshawar High Court, Circuit Bench Abbottabad, which was dismissed on 8-11-1989. The petitioner now seeks leave to appeal before this Court.
3. ' We have gone through the record of the case and findings of the Courts below in the light of the arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner. We have come to the conclusion that this petition has no merit and needs dismissal straightaway. The accused has himself admitted the finding of facts with regard to the guilt established against him. The sentence awarded to him by the learned Special Judge Anti-Corruption, in our opinion, is not inadequate and has rightly been not interfered by the learned High Court. Thus, we, think it is not a fit case in which leave to appeal can be granted. The petition, accordingly is dismissed.
