Keywords: Result: Petition dismissed JUDGMENT Zulfiqar Ahmad Khan, J.:- This judgment will dispose of the Revision Application filed against the Judgment passed in Civil Appeal No.184/2005 by the learned VIth Additional District Judge (East), Karachi filed by the Petitioners alleging that the impugned order is illegal and liable to be set aside on the ground that the learned Judge failed to appreciate the facts correctly as well as misapplied the law.

Hand-written comments on the said letter shows that payment of Rs.230/- was also made in respect of the said extra land allotted on 29.09.1953 and there are also comment thereon suggesting "he is shareholder of the society".
