Decision The court allowed the review application in part, rectifying an erroneous assumption made in a previous order regarding the entitlement of Sher Muhammad to transfer the property known as Chapra. The original judgment had declared the transfer void and without legal authority. The review clarified that the previous order incorrectly stated that Sher Muhammad was entitled to the property, which was not supported by the trial court's judgment. The review application was thus partially granted, removing the erroneous declaration from the record.
