DOST MUHAMMAD

BABAR MUNIR

Law:

Section:

(a) Cantonments Rent Restriction Act (XI of 1963)--S.17---Displaced Persons (Compensation and Rehabilitation) Act (XXVIII of 1958), S.10---Ejectment of tenant was ordered by Rent Controller and affirmed in appeal by High Court---Tenant's contention was that he had been contesting transfer of property to respondent landlord and contest was not yet concluded; that his petition for leave to appeal was still, pending before Supreme Court--­Such contention was urged before High Court in appeal and then in Constitutional petition but same did not prevail---Entitlement of transferee under Displaced Persons (Compensation and Rehabilitation) Act, 1958, had arisen with the issuance of P.T.O., and as long as P.T.O. stood, statutory relationship existed and liability of tenant to submit to provisional transferee as tenant, would come into existence---Matter of transfer could proceed independently of ejectment proceedings---Mere pendency of a petition for leave to appeal was no good ground for not dealing with present petition on merits.

ORDER SHAFIUR RAHMAN, J.---The petitioner, a tenant in the area of Cantonment in Rawalpindi, seeks leave to appeal against the judgment of the Lahore High Court, Rawalpindi Bench, Rawalpindi, dated 12-9-1989, whereby a first appeal filed by him against the order of eviction passed by the Cantonment Rent Controller was dismissed. 2.
