ORDER
JUSTICE AFTAB HUSSAIN, CHARIMAN.-----Recently this Court has been given the power of review. This petition for review has been filed in a criminal appeal which was decided by this Court on the 28th of- March, 1981. The Court have not framed any rules so far but we make it clear that the power granted to us is in the nature of discretion to interfere or- not. We would like to be governed by the principle of Cr. P. C. in matters of review of criminal cases. For this reason we would not like to interfere in exercise of review jurisdiction with our decisions given in criminal appeals. In fact the review jurisdiction has been conferred upon this Court in connection with the matters in Shariat Petitions. This petition is therefore dismissed.
