Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Muhammad Afzal Zullah, M. S. H. Qureshi Title:Mst. SARFRAZI BEGUM AND ANOTHER vs DEPUTY SETTLEMENT COMMISSIONER

AND OTHERS Case No.: Civil Petition for Special Leave to Appeal No, 209 of 1977 Date of Judgment:1983-03-14 Reported As: 1984 SCMR 57 Result: petition dismissed Judgment ORDER M. S. H. QURAISHI, J.-This petition is barred by 27 days. The ground for condonation mentioned in the application filed in this behalf furnishes enough cause for condonation. We accordingly condone the delay. ' The subject-matter of the writ petition, filed by the petitioners in the High Court which was dismissed in limine was the transfer of an urban property which had been divided in the Settlement operation. In the order impugned in the High Court, it was observed that the petitioners went out of the contest and were no longer in the field claiming the transfer of the property. We have noticed that the beneficiaries, on account of the petitioners going out of the contest, were their close relations in first degree. Learned counsel has tried to challenge the finding of face (affirmed by the High Court) regarding the petitioners having voluntarily gone out of the contest. After hearing him in this behalf, we find no justification to interfere with the finding of fact. This petition accordingly is dismissed.
