2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the land of the respondent on her behalf was sold by her Attorney who was his nephew and maintained that since the execution of power of attorney in his favour had been admitted therefore, the sale made by the attorney on her behalf was binding on her.
3. We have noticed that the attorney sold the land to his wife which constitute sale in his own favour. It has been held by this Court as rule of law that an attorney if wanted to exercise power in his own favour has to consult the principal before doing so therefore, on this score alone, the mutation of sale in dispute was liable to be struck down.
4. The judgments passed by the Courts below in this case are perfectly in accordance with law and do not suffer from any illegality such as misreading or non-reading of any material piece of evidence, therefore, this petition being meritless is hereby dismissed and .
