Section:

Settlement Scheme No. I---Constitution of Pakistan (1973), Art. 185(3)---Leave to appeal was granted to consider whether the order of remand passed by High Court had been properly complied with by the Additional Settlement Commissioner; whether the shops in occupation of petitioners were available property within the meaning of Scheme for management and disposal of available properties and petitioners were entitled to the transfer of shops under the Scheme, whether the property specifically marked in the site plan had actually been transferred to respondent-transferee and whether he was entitled to its transfer; and whether the P.T.O. produced by transferee before Additional Settlement Commissioner during arguments of the case was not a forged document and whether it had ever seen light of the day before it was produced.
