ORDER

' MUNIR A. SHEIKH, J.---This petition is directed against the judgment, dated 14-11-2001 passed by a Division Bench of Lahore High Court. Lahore whereby appeal filed by respondents Nos.2 and 3 convicts has been accepted. Their conviction under section 302(b), P.P.C. Set aside and they have been acquitted of the charges.

2. This petition is barred by 55 days. The only ground urged for condonation of delay is that the petitioner who was the complainant of the case on whose behalf F.I.R. Was registered did not receive any notice from the High Court. We are afraid if it can be considered to be a sufficient ground for condonation of delay particularly against the IA judgment of acquittal.

3. Even otherwise we have satisfied ourselves that the impugned judgment is based on correct appraisal of evidence which satisfy the principles laid down by the superior Courts for safe administration of criminal justice.

4. No case has been made out for condonation of delay. Application made by the petitioner for condonation of delay is dismissed. Resultantly, the main petition is also dismissed as barred by time and .
