others Case No.: Civil Petition No,1184 of 1983 Date of Judgment:1988-08-28 Reported As: 1989 SCMR 1440 Result: Petition dismissed Judgment ORDER ' SAAD SAOOD JAN, J.--The petitioner invoked the Constitutional jurisdiction of the High Court to challenge an award made against him in accordance with the provisions of the Co-operative Societies Act in favour of the Khanewal Central Co-operative Bank Limited. His main plea was that by way of security for the loan he had mortgaged with the Bank his factory together with some other immovable property but that the Bank had misappropriated the sale proceeds thereof. This contention had been raised before the departmental authorities but after consideration of evidence was rejected. In writ jurisdiction the High Court declined to interfere with this finding of fact. 2. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner we are not persuaded that the High Court erred in not interfering with the finding of the departmental authorities. The petition is dismissed.
