Petitioner: Sheikh MOHAMMAD IQBAL AND 3 Others VS Respondent: AMIR BUX AND Another
Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Waheeduddin Ahmad, Muhammad Yaqub Ali Khan Title: Sheikh MOHAMMAD IQBAL AND 3 Others vs AMIR BUX AND Another Case No.: Civil Petition for Special Leave to Appeal No. K-64 of 1970 Date of Judgment:1970-08-20 Reported As: 1971 SCMR 61 Result: Petition dismissed
Judgment ORDER MUHAMMAD YAQUB ALI, J.--The petitioner who appears in person is unable to make out a case for interference by the High Court with the finding of the Arbitrator that the disputed sum of Rs.75,000 which in the books of accounts of the firm stood debited in the names of the respondents was in fact appropriated by the petitioner and that he was liable to account for this sum to the remaining partners of the firm. He tried to argue that no issue was framed on this point. However, as pointed out by the learned Judges in the High Court, the respondents had specifically taken up this plea in para. 7 of the statement of their case. It appears that evidence was also brought on the record on which the disputed finding is based. The petition for leave to appeal is wholly without any substance and is dismissed hereby.
