Case Number Criminal Revision No. 9 of 2017
Decision Date Mar 13, 2017
Hearing Date Feb 28, 2017
Decision The revision petition was dismissed on the grounds that the trial court's rejection of the compromise was valid. The court found that the legal heirs of the deceased did not properly represent their interests in the compromise and that key facts were suppressed. The court emphasized the importance of approaching it with clean hands and highlighted that the petitioner must fulfill legal requirements for any future compromise submissions.
Summary In the case concerning the criminal revision petition filed by Allah Dina against The State, the Balochistan High Court addressed issues surrounding the waiver and compounding of offenses under the Pakistan Penal Code and Criminal Procedure Code. The court examined the legitimacy of a compromise reached between the petitioner and certain legal heirs of the deceased, emphasizing that proper legal procedures must be followed. The ruling underscored the need for transparency and integrity in legal proceedings, particularly when fundamental rights of legal heirs are at stake. The court dismissed the petition, asserting that the compromise was invalid due to the misrepresentation of legal heirs and the failure to prove the deaths of certain family members according to legal standards. The decision reaffirms the necessity for all parties involved in legal matters to act honestly and in accordance with the law to maintain the integrity of the judicial process.
