| Decision |
The Lahore High Court dismissed the constitutional petition filed by the petitioner, Usman Liaquat, seeking the recovery of a Toyota Hilux vehicle. The decision emphasized that the Magistrate's order was conditional, requiring the submission of original vehicle documents, which the petitioner failed to comply with. The court noted discrepancies in the vehicle numbers provided by the petitioner and reinforced that the ownership issue was pending in the Civil Court. The court deemed the petition without merit due to the petitioner's non-compliance with the conditions set forth in the previous orders. |
| Summary |
This case revolves around the constitutional petition filed by Usman Liaquat for the recovery of a Toyota Hilux seized by the police. The petitioner claimed ownership of the vehicle, which was taken into custody in April 2009. After various proceedings, the Judicial Magistrate ordered the vehicle to be returned on the condition that the petitioner submit original documents and a surety bond. However, the petitioner failed to meet these conditions and instead sought adjournments, leading to the dismissal of the petition by the Lahore High Court. The court highlighted the importance of adhering to legal requirements and the ongoing civil proceedings concerning the ownership of the vehicle. The case underscores the significance of compliance in legal processes and the role of the judiciary in upholding these standards. |
