Case Number Civil Revision No.585 of 2001
Decision Date May 02, 2005
Hearing Date Apr 25, 2005
Decision The Peshawar High Court upheld the decisions of the lower courts, stating that the concurrent findings of fact were sound and supported by the evidence presented. The court emphasized that no misreading or non-reading of evidence had been demonstrated. The petitioners' claims regarding ownership of the property were dismissed, reinforcing the lower courts' judgments that had already ruled in favor of the respondents. The court concluded that the petitioners had not provided sufficient grounds to interfere with the decisions rendered by the lower courts, and thus the revision petition was dismissed.
Summary In the case of Mst. Bushra and Mst. Islam Bibi vs. Mst. Rehmatal Bibi, the Peshawar High Court reviewed a civil revision concerning a suit for declaration and possession filed by the petitioners against their mother and others. The petitioners sought to establish their ownership of a specific piece of land, challenging a mutation made in favor of the respondents. The court found that the lower courts had properly evaluated the evidence and rendered sound decisions. The involvement of a Local Commissioner to ascertain the ages of the petitioners and their living arrangements was deemed appropriate. The High Court affirmed the lower courts' findings and dismissed the revision petition, underlining the importance of judicial discretion and the absence of substantive evidence to alter the decisions made.
