Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Muhammad Haleem, Zaffar Hussain Mirza, S. A. Nusrat Title: Mst. HAFEEZ BEGUM AND Others, vs ABDUS SATTAR Case No.: Civil Petition, No. 969 of 1983, Date of Judgment:1983-07-05 Reported As: 1983 SCMR 885 Result: Petition dismissed

Judgment ORDER MUHAMNAD HALEEM, ACTG., C. J.-The petitioner failed to pay the rent for three consecutive months, and, accordingly, committed a breach of the order of the Rent Controller dated the 10th of May, 1980, by which he was granted protection against ejectment for 8 years. His case before the Executing Court was that the respondent himself had told him that he would collect the rent on his visit to the shop, and it was, thereafter, that the rent was not paid. This was not the stipulation in the order dated the 10th of May, 1980, and, therefore the Executing Court could not go behind it. The petitioner himself committed a breach of the order and he is not entitled to any relief. The petition is dismissed as without substance.
