SHAFIUR RAHMAN, J.---The petitioner, earlier a Sub-Inspector of Police was proceeded against departmentally for disobedience/avoidance of the compliance of the order of the superior and was reduced in rank. He appealed to the Tribunal and failed, and now seeks leave to appeal under Article 212(3) of the Constitution.
2. The appeal is shown to be barred by 23 days. No explanation is forthcoming to explain this delay.
There is, therefore, no sufficient cause for condoning the delay.
3. On merits the learned counsel for the petitioner has been heard and we find that a finding of fact has been recorded. It is a case of disobedience of orders of superiors in a disciplined force and the punishment imposed does not call for review in these proceedings.
4. Leave to appeal is, therefore, refused.
