' The learned counsel of the petitioner filed to a writ petition for the quashment of F.I.R. No,79 of 1997.
2. The learned counsel of the petitioner contended that the petitioner is involved in the case on account of previous enmity. He further contended that inquiry was conducted and the petitioner was found innocent. Similarly his co-accused Ghulam Fareed was declared innocent by the police.
3. Be that as it may, this Court has no jurisdiction to quash the F.I.R. As is held by the Privy Council in Khawaja Nazir's case (AIR 1945 P.C. 18). This was subsequently debated and approved by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Shehnaz Begum's case (PLD 1971 SC 677). Subsequently this view was again approved and confirmed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Brig Imtiaz's case (1994 SCM R 2142). In the interest of justice and fair play let a copy of the writ petition be sent to D.I.-G. Multan Range, Multan who shall look into the matter personally 'and pass an appropriate order strictly in accordance with law.

Multan Range Multan for necessary action.
' In the meantime the respondents are directed to act strictly in accordance with law.
' With these observations this writ petition is disposed of.
