Art. 58 (3) and Supreme Court Rules, 1956, O. XIII, r. 1 & O. XXIV, r. 1‑Petition for Special Leave to Appeal in criminal matter barred by 63 days‑Contention that in matters of bail petitioner thought there was no limitation and hence the delay‑Contention, held, untenable Leave refused.

Nemo for the State.

Date of hearing : 26th June 1968.

JUDGMENT

SAJJAD AHMAD, J.

‑This petition is barred by 63 days. The ground for condonation of the delay that a relative of the petitioners who was pursuing the case for them was under the impression that there was no time limit for filing a petition in this Court in a bail matter, is manifestly untenable, even if it were accepted to be true.

We dismiss the petition as time‑barred.

Petition dismissed.
