ORDER

' SAAD SAOOD JAN, J.---The petitioner was serving as officiating Berk in the office of the Post Master, Peshawar City. There were allegations of misconduct, misbehaviour and unauthorised absence from duty against him. He was served with a charge-sheet and an Inquiry Officer was appointed.

On the basis of the fmdings of the Inquiry Officer and after giving a further opportunity to the petitioner to defend himself the City Superintendent of Post Offices dismissed him for service. He preferred a departmental appeal before the Deputy Post Master-General. The appeal partly succeeded inasmuch as the punishment awarded to him was reduced to removal from service. He filed an appeal before the Federal Service Tribunal but without any success. He now seeks leave to appeal from this Court.

2. The petitioner has been removed from service after a proper inquiry. Learned counsel for the petitioner has not been able to show that the departmental proceedings taken against him suffered from any infirmity. Considering the allegations that stand established against him he seems to have been lightly treated in the matter of punishment. This petition is without any merit and is hereby dismissed.
