| Decision |
The Supreme Court dismissed the petition, stating that the matter had been remanded to the Deputy Settlement Commissioner and had not been finally determined yet. The court observed that the petitioners could raise their contentions before the Deputy Settlement Commissioner regarding their preferential right to the allotment of the property in lieu of their pending suits. The court found no reason to interfere with the High Court's order dismissing the petitioners' constitutional petition as premature. |
| Summary |
In the case of Muhammad Boota and others versus Noor Ahmad and others, the Supreme Court of Pakistan dealt with a petition regarding property allotment rights. The court emphasized that the matter was still pending before the Deputy Settlement Commissioner and that the petitioners retained the right to present their case. The decision focused on the legal principles surrounding property rights and the procedural aspects of remanding cases back to lower tribunals. The ruling highlighted the importance of following due process in property disputes and reinforced the need for petitioners to exhaust available remedies before seeking higher judicial intervention.
