Civil - Partition suit methodology
PARTITION SUITS AND ITS METHODOLOGY
In Courts of Pakistan huge number of partition suits are pending adjudication. As there is no proper mechanism with revenue hierarchy/revenue department or other law enforcing institutions to make partitions of properties without constraining the owners to approach the Courts of law. The difference of opinion and ill-unionship is a natural thing in a society and normally the people cannot survive in joint venture and to live an independent life or to utilize the property in his own manner, they are constrained to get divide their properties but through the course of law.
In partition suits there is no loser and both the parties are to be called winner but if the possession of the property is in the hands of tress-passer, then he can be loser of partition suit.
Partition is recognized by the legal maxim "Nemo in Communione potest invitus detineri", no one can be kept in co-proprietorship against his will. Partition is merely an arrangement whereby co-sharers having undivided interest in joint properties take by arrangements specific properties in lieu of their shares.
For partition suits the property can be divided in three types:
(i) Pure Agricultural Properties,
(ii) Agricultural and Constructed mixed properties, and
(iii) Pure Constructed Properties (in the shape of houses, shops, markets and etc).
Undoubtedly relief for partition in respect of agricultural properties can be sought from Revenue Officer under Chapter XI Section 135 and other relevant sections of this chapter.
Similarly if the property subject of partition is partly agricultural and partly constructed, then as per law laid down by the Superior Courts, it will be analyzed that whether which type of property has a major portion, if agricultural then Revenue Courts will be approached, otherwise relief for partition will be obtained from Ordinary Civil Courts of Law.
So far as pure constructed properties are concerned, they can be got divided from ordinary civil Courts through a suit for partition under the Partition Act, 1893.
PRE-CAUTIONS IN PARTITION SUITS:
(i) (JURISDICTION):
Case must be filed in the appropriate Court of jurisdiction. While assessing the question of jurisdiction, first of all territorial jurisdiction should be ascertained and the suit for partition in respect of immovable property must be filed having regard to Sections 16, 17 and 18 of the Civil Procedure Code, and ordinarily it is to be filed in that Court within the local limits of whose jurisdiction, the immovable property is situated.
Secondly, subject matter jurisdiction must be assessed as highlighted above, suits in respect of pure agricultural property or major portion of agricultural property is to be filed in Revenue Courts, and regarding constructed property or major portion of constructed property is to be filed in Civil Courts. In case titled: Qamar Sultan Vs Mst. Bibi Sufaidan, reported in 2012 SCMR 695, it was held that, "Jurisdiction in respect of partition of agricultural property and to grant relief would lay with the revenue Court".
While dealing with the matter of jurisdiction the Court should have to take great care for deciding that whether the suit property is an agricultural one or constructed/commercial. In case titled: Sher Ahmad Khan Vs Sardar Khan, reported in 2008 PLD 97 Peshawar, it was held that, "if the land was agricultural, then the partition of the same was exclusively amenable to the jurisdiction of the Revenue Court and the jurisdiction of the Civil Court in view of S. 172, West Pakistan Land Revenue Act, 1967 was barred which proposition, however, was subject to one exception that if the agricultural land would lose its character and would become building site or commercial area, then the civil Court would have jurisdiction to entertain the suit with respect to its partition. Whether the land or its major portion was covered by abadi or the same was exclusively agricultural land, was a spot related question, which could be determined by the Trial Court after the appointment of a local commission who, after visiting the spot, would be in a position to determine the nature of the property".
In case titled: Jamal ud Din Vs Haji Gul Khan, reported in 2012 CLC 1353 Quetta, the august superior Courts provided a procedure for preferring the matter of partition to a Revenue Court and held that, "Party interested in partition of his share in suit property, had to make an application for partition of the land to a Revenue Officer as per provision of S. 135 of West Pakistan Land Revenue Act, 1967".
The Revenue Officer while dealing with the partition of the property could decide only question of title in property to be partitioned while acting as a civil Court of competent jurisdiction, but could not decide all other questions falling within jurisdiction of Civil Court. In case titled: Mst. Farzana Vs Mst. Sehti, reported in 2012 PLD 241 Karachi, it was held that, "Revenue Officer while deciding questions as to property to be partitioned or mode of its partition would act only as Revenue Officer, but not as a revenue Court or civil Court".
Revenue Officer can decide matter of title in the immovable property and if he thinks fit, then he can sent the same matter to the Civil Court for deciding matter of title to the immovable property. In case titled: Muhammad Yousaf Khan Vs Board of Revenue, reported in 2002 CLC 739 Supreme Court Azad Kashmir, it is held that, "Where question of title would arise in property to be partitioned, Revenue Officer could himself determine question of title or refer matter to Civil Court for its determination".
(ii) (PARTIES).
All Co-sharers in the joint properties are to be arrayed as a party to the partition case and no name should be left from impleadment, in order to save the suit from the plea of non-joinder.
In case titled: Syed Ain Ullah vs Dilber and others, reported in 2013 MLD 708 Baluchistan, it was held that, "dismissal of suit on the basis of non-joinder of a necessary party was an erroneous decision as under Order I Rule 9, CPC, no suit shall be defeated by the reason of mis-joinder or non-joinder of parties and the trial Court was empowered to implead a person to the proceedings who it deemed to be necessary for determination of matter in issue".
In case titled: Muhammad Younas Sheikh Vs Corex enterprises and another, reported in 2007 MLD 508 Karachi, it was held that, "Suit would not be defeated by reason of mis-joinder or non-joinder of parties and the Court could deal with the matter in controversy so far as regarded the rights and interests of the parties actually before it".
Similar guideline is also provided in the below mentioned rulings of superior Courts that mis-joinder or non-joinder is not fatal to the suit, those judgments are as under:
a. 2011 YLR 1999 Quetta, b. 2011 SCMR 1460,
c. 2010 MLD 1596 Quetta, d. 2007 SCMR 729 Citation 👎.
Keeping in mind the afore-referred verdicts of the august superior Courts, though mis-joinder or non-joinder of parties is not fatal to the civil litigation and the trial Court is supposed to determine the issue even in those suits in which this defect is present. But at the same time the law advises that all parties having an interest in the subject matter of the suit should be arrayed as a party either in the panel of plaintiffs or defendants. So great care should be made that in suit for possession through partition all the co-sharers/Khata shareek are joined as a party.
(iii) (FULL PARTITION SUIT IS TO BE BROUGHT AND NOT FOR PARTIAL PARTITION).
All properties which are in joint venture of the parties are to be included in the partition suit, in order to save the suit from the question of Partial Partition.
In case titled: Noor Muhammad and others Vs Allah Ditta and others, reported in PLD 2009 Supreme Court 198 citation (C), the august Apex Court held that, "Co-owner in a joint property was not entitled without assent or acquisance of the other co-sharers, to exclude portion of joint property or to select a particular portion for the purpose of partition. Co-sharer was required to seek the partition of the landed property as a whole".
In case titled: Ghulam Rasool and another Vs Muhammad Khalid and others, reported in 2006 YLR 2289 Lahore, the august Court held that, "party opting to come for partition was not permitted to pick and choose and to have share in valuable parts of the joint holdings by leaving out its parties with lesser value, suit found to be for partial partition was not maintainable".
In case titled: Chaudhary Ghulam Abbas Vs Barkat Ali and another, reported in 1999 YLR 2190 Lahore citation (b), the Hon'ble Court held that, "partition of holding could not be affected without including the entire land of property, partial partition was bad in law".
(iv) (NO PRIOR PARTITION OR PRIVATE SETTLEMENT/KHANGI TAQSEEM).
The suit must be in respect of those joint properties in respect of which neither any regular partition was made priorly nor the properties should have been divided through private settlement/Khangi Taqseem.
To prove private partition, party should have to produce/exhibit order of partition or copy of Roznamcha Waqiati showing delivery of possession or Tatimma made in favour of co-sharer/party.
The fact of Private partition is always considered in the course of litigation, as such sanctity is available to the same. In a case titled: Irshad alieas Abdul Rahim Vs Ashiq Hussain, reported in 2007 PLD 421 Karachi, the Hon'ble Court held that, "Private arrangement and partition deserves the same sanctity which a lawful contract deserves and should not be interfered within any legal proceedings unless the private arrangement or partition is otherwise not legally permissible".
If a dispute between the co-sharers arises in a situation when private partition has been arrived between them, but they have no formal partition deed in their hands or it has been lost, then in such like circumstances, the possession of respective party would be of great importance in determining the real issue of private partition. In case titled: Naveed Ahmad Vs Iqbal Begum, reported in 2006 YLR 2341 Lahore, it is held that, "Private Partition between the parties--
—Absence of formal partition deed—Question of possession would assume critical significance".
Private partition should be proved independently.
(v) (CO-SHARERSHIP).
It is to be established that the claimant is co-sharer in the property subject of partition.
In case titled: Gulzar Begum Vs Mehboob Hussain alias Mehboob Khan, reported in 2012 YLR 809 High Court AJK, the Hon'ble Court held that, "Possession on the said land could not be distributed till partition of the same in accordance with law was not made".
In another case titled: Muhammad Ismail Vs Ghulam Sarwar, reported in 2008 YLR 420 Lahore, the remedy was given to a co-sharer who desired to get possession of his share in an undivided property and it is held that, ''only manner in which the plaintiffs could get possession was by filing a suit for partition and separate possession".
Sometimes a question arises that whether a co-sharer can sell his share in the joint khata or not. This question is resolved by the august Lahore High Court in case titled: Abdul Ghaffar Vs Waqas Hafeez, reported in 2010 CLC 285 Lahore, it was held by the august Court that, "Co-sharer in possession in a khata has a right to alienate a specific piece of land in his possession and the transferee acquires the same rights as the transferor".
It is the basic right of each and every co-sharer that he can claim partition of the joint property at any time and there is no limitation against such claim. This preposition has been set by worthy Supreme Court of Pakistan in case of Muhammad Rafiq, reported in 2004 SCMR 1036 Supreme Court, wherein it is held that, "Partition could be claimed by any of the joint owners during currency of joint ownership without limitation of any period in that behalf, so long as his right was not denied".
In case titled: Ashiq Hussain Vs Prof. Muhammad Aslam, reported in 2004 MLD 1844 Lahore, it is held that, "suit for permanent injunction against the other co-sharers was not maintainable except by bringing a suit for partition of joint property".
TRIAL OF PARTITION BY CIVIL COURT:
In partition suits ordinarily the civil Courts bifurcate the claim into two rounds/stages:
(a) First round/stage is finalized on preliminary decree of the partition suits or if some flaws highlighted here-in-above are involved, then it is dismissed.
In the preliminary round of litigation of partition suits, the trial Court mainly checked the question of jurisdiction, the entitlement/co-sharership of the parties, and other merits of the case and if the case is made out by the claimant, then in this round of litigation the Court determines the shares of the parties in joint property.
(b) Second round/stage is called final decree proceedings. In this round application for the grant of final decree is filed by the decree holder, on the basis of which issues notice to the respondents, and if they contest the same, they file reply. The Court after hearing the parties appoints a local commission under Section 75 read with order 26 of CPC for determination of mode of partition. The commission as per directions of the Court visits the property subject of partition and examines it, whether it is partitionable or not. If it is not partitionable then the local commissioner evaluate the market value of the decretal property and thereafter he submits his report. The Court passes order of sale of decretal property and then passes order of division of proceeds of sale between the parties in accordance with their determine shares.
The report of local commissioner in determining the actual position of the property sought to be partitioned is of much importance, as the same can help the Court for determining the fact that whether the property is partitionable or not and if partitionable then what should be the criteria for its partition.
If the property is partitionable then the local commission in the presence of the parties and record keeper of the property, if any, suggests the mode of partition. He prepares a sketch/map of the spot. Legally speaking the local commission keeping in mind the possession of each party, their shares, the valuable and priceless portions of the property, the construction if any, suggests the mode of partition keeping in mind this notion that every co-sharer must received the constructed portion, valuable and priceless portion as that all them are equally accommodated. Thereafter, the local commission submits its report, the Court invites the objections if any, of the parties, examine the local commission, if necessary and either confirmed or set aside the commission report. If it is set aside, then the Court appoints another commission with the same directions and work, otherwise in case of confirmation of the commission report, the Court passes final decree.
Thereafter, the decree holder brings an execution application for getting possession on the spot in accordance with the final decree.
It also pertinent to mention that the outcome of first round of partition suit i.e. preliminary decree is always subject to appeal, then revision or second appeal, and finally it is also challengeable before the Supreme Court in its appellate jurisdiction envisaged under Article 185 of the Constitution. Similarly the final decree if the parties so desires, can be challenged through the same process, appeal, revision/second appeal and appeal under Article 185 of the Constitution, and the last stage is the execution as mentioned above.
TO GET REMEDY IN CASES OF PARTITION IS TIME CONSUMING PROCESS:
A huge number of suits for partition are pending before different Civil Courts of Pakistan and a great number of civil appeals, civil revision and CPLA are pending before District Courts, High Courts and Supreme Court of Pakistan. As observed above, that as there is no direct/automatic mechanism for partition/division of immovable properties except the litigation, a large number of people are making visits of different Courts for getting relief. It is also observed that even a suit for partition take great time in civil Court, if we roughly calculate it takes:
(i) Six years in civil/Trial Court;
(ii) Two years in Appellate/District Court;
(iii) Six years in Revisional/High Court; and
(iv) Six years in Supreme Court of Pakistan.
Meaning thereby a partition suit takes minimum Twenty years. It must be kept in mind that in partition suits there is no concept of looser, both the parties if found co-owners, get relief and except the tress-passer both the parties are accommodated by the Court. But what happened practically, a partition suit is brought and the same is decided but at the end of the day it is defeated due to the below mentioned flaws:
i. (Jurisdiction).
ii. (Non-joinder).
iii. (Partial partition).
iv. (Prior partition or private settlement/Khangi Taqseem).
v. (No Co-sharership).
It is need of hour that the august Supreme Court of Pakistan like guidelines provided for rent cases, in case titled: Barkat Ali Vs Muhammad Ihsan, etc, reported in 2000 SCMR 556, also provides guidelines for partition suits and to declare it necessary that some proforma's prepared by the Supreme Court of Pakistan are to be made available with the partition suit at the time of its institution and these proforma must be filled by the counsel of the plaintiffs, signed by him and also by the plaintiffs. These proforma must relate to the issues mentioned below:
(i) The Court has got the jurisdiction,
(ii) All the co-sharers and necessary parties are impleaded,
(iii) The suit is regarding whole property and not for a particular portion,
(iv) There is no prior regular or private partition and
(v) The plaintiffs are co-sharers in the property subject of partition and there due share, if determined and known should be highlighted.
This effort will surely minimize the agonies of poor litigants who are visiting Courts for their suits regarding partition.
If both the parties claiming possession over the suit property, then such phenomena deals with the factual controversy and the same could only be resolved after calling of evidence from both sides. In case titled: Abdul Qadir Vs Sher Muhammad, reported in 2010 MLD 1596 Quetta, it was held that, "Section 54 and O.XX, R. 18, C.P.C. were to be observed while deciding the issues of partition".
PROCEDURE IN RESPECT OF PARTITION OF AGRICULTURAL PROPERTIES IN REVENUE COURTS:
As explained in case of Noor Muhammad and others Vs Allah Ditta and others, reported in PLD 2009 Supreme Court 198 by the august Supreme Court that proceedings of partition of agricultural land before the Revenue Officers were not governed by the Civil Procedure Code, 1908, particularly when the question of title was not involved, such proceedings being summary in nature do not partake the character of a civil suit necessitating the framing of issues or recording of evidence of the parties.
According to Section 142 of Land Revenue Act, 1967 the Revenue Officer was to decide the question by holding an inquiry as he deemed necessary.
Application for partition of agricultural property is to be filed under Section 135 of Land Revenue Act, 1967 by impleading all co-sharers as a party by joining complete property which is in joint venture of the parties. The Revenue Court after noticing the respondents and after getting replies, if any, from them will summons the patwari halqa and will direct him to prepare Naqsha "Alif', "Bay" and "Jeem".
(i) Naqsha Alif will show Shares/Hissas of parties in the property in question.
(ii) Naqsha Bay will show proposed Khasrawise shares of parties and basically in this document the mode of partition is determined and proposed Tatimaas are curved out. Basically this document denotes the division of shares and in Urdu it is known as (نقشہ ب،بٹوار).
(iii) Naqsha Jeem will show the proposal regarding the partition mutation and in urdu it is known as (نقشہ ج جدائی).
At the end the revenue officer will examine the record and will hear the arguments, if any, of the counsels of the parties and if there is no question of earlier private/regular partition or non-joinder or partial partition or jurisdiction or title dispute will allow the application and passed the order and issue "Sanad-Sultani" in favour of the applicants as per the above referred Naqshajaat. Thereafter, for practical possession, the applicant may apply to an through an execution application and finally possession is handed over to him on the spot.
Similarly as per decision, the revenue officer will enter and attest partition mutation and will curved-out the "Tattimaas" by dividing the available Khasra numbers in Bye-numbers.
In case titled: Khawaja Muhammad Arif Vs Mrs. Tahira Asif, reported in 2005 PLD 972 Supreme Court, it is held by the worthy Supreme Court of Pakistan that, "Decree of partition is an "instrument of Partition" and as such has to be engrossed on stamp paper and in case it is not done the decree can neither be executed nor could be acted upon". "Real test of "instrument of partition" is whether there was any property of which the parties were co-owners and the property was being divided by the deed in scverality, entitling the parties to the separate enjoyment of that property".
LEGAL AFFECT OF PRIVATE PARTITION OF AGRICULTURAL PROPERTY:
Private partition of agricultural properties between the co-sharers will have no legal affect until the same is affirmed by the Revenue Officer U/S 147 of Land Revenue Act, 1967, which provides that "In any case in which a partition has been made without the intervention of a Revenue Officer, any party thereto may apply to a Revenue Officer for an order affirming the partition. On receiving the application, the Revenue Officer shall enquire into the case, and if he finds that the partition has in fact been made, he may make an order affirming it and proceed under Sections 143, 144, 145 and 146, or any of those sections, as circumstances may require, in the same manner as if the partition had been made on at application to himself under this chapter.
In case titled: Noor Muhammad and others Vs Allah Ditta and others, reported in PLD 2009 Supreme Court 198 citation (C), the august Apex Court held that, "Private partition does not determine the legal rights but simply indicates the mode of division of property among them".
In case titled: Syed Musarrat Shah Vs Syed Ahmed Shah alias Lal Bacha reported in 2012 PLD 151 Peshawar, the august Court held that, "Mere entry of partition mutation, could not be declared to be sufficient enough to have the protection of law". If other steps have not been taken in respect of the affirmation of the private partition, i.e. inquiry about private partition, passing of order of affirmation of private partition, administration of property excluded from partition, distribution of revenue and rent amongst the co-owners after partition, instrument of partition and delivery of possession to all the concerned co-sharers according to the partition so reached between the parties.
OTHER ISSUES REGARDING PARTITION
UN-DIVISIBLE NATURE OF PROPERTY:
One another problem which is now a day very common and which the masses faces in the urban area is that sometimes the property is of un-divisible nature, so in such a situation if any one of the co-sharers files a suit for partition of the such property, then the Court should have to take great care in such like cases and should take assistance from law by applying S.2 of Partition Act, 1893. In case titled: Iqbal Ahmad Vs Mst. Aziz Bano, reported in 2010 MLD 784 Karachi, it is held that, "Provisions of S.2 of Partition Act, 1893, made it generally permissible that in a suit of such nature, a property if found incapable of being partitioned by metes and bounds, the same might be sold out and proceeds thereof might be distributed among the share-holders/co-owners to resolve the controversy between them in respect thereof as once for all".
RIGHT OF CO-SHARER TO BUY WHOLE UNDIVIDED PROPERTY WHICH IS OF INDIVISIBLE NATURE:
Once a preliminary decree is passed by a Court of law then the Court has left with no other option by to proceed under S. 3 of the Partition Act, 1893. This fact has further been confirmed by the verdict of the Lahore High Court, in case tilled: Firdous Begum Vs Mst. Salamat Bibi reported in 2008 CLC 248 Lahore, in which it is held that, "Once preliminary decree was passed, then provisions of S. 2 of Partition Act, 1893 would not apply and Court would have to pass final decree and resort to provision of S. 3 thereof and in case of failure of any share-holder to apply for leave to buy share, then property would be liable to be auctioned. Once property was found to be indivisible, then Court for effecting partition would have to follow procedure laid down in Partition Act, 1893 after providing opportunity to shareholders to apply for leave to buy property".
REMEDIES WITH THE PERSON/CO-SHARER WHO IS DISPOSSESSED:
In case titled: Contractor Haji Muhammad Alam Vs Shaukat Sultan, reported in 2009 SCMR 688, the Hon'ble Apex Court held that, "where a co-sharer in possession is dispossessed by another co-sharer, then he has two remedies to avail, he can either file suit for partition or a suit under S.9, Specific Relief Act, 1877".
In another case titled: Shoukat Sultan Vs Haji Muhammad Alam, reported in 2008 YLR 1698 Lahore, it is held the by the august High Court that, "where co-sharer in possession was dispossessed by another co-sharer, then he had two options, namely he could either wait and file suit for partition or he could file a suit under S. 9 of the Specific Relief Act, 1877".
In another case titled: Niaz War Jan Vs Gul Nawaz, reported in 2007 YLR 1723 Peshawar, it is held by the august High Court that, "A co-sharer in possession of a joint property was not liable to be ousted therefrom, except on a partition by metes and bounds taking place between the co-sharers".
In case titled: Muhammad Riaz Vs Mumtaz Ali through Legal Heirs, reported in 2006 YLR 1071, it is held that, "where both the parties were co-sharers in the joint un-partition Khata and their remedy was to seek partition in accordance with law by impleading all other co-sharers in khata—If a co-sharer was dispossessed by another co-sharer his remedy was for partition of joint property or a suit under Section 9 of Specific Relief Act, 1877, for possession but a regular suit under section 8 of Specific Relief Act, 1877, was not maintainable—Suit filed by the petitioner could not be treated to be one under Section 9 of Specific Relief Act, 1877, as there was no specific averment that they were illegally or forcibly dispossessed from the land in dispute".
Remedies provided to the co-sharer who has been dispossessed has also been given by august Lahore High Court in case titled: Nazar Hussain Vs Additional District Judge, Chakwal reported in 2004 YLR 322, wherein it is held that, "Co-sharer in possession, if dispossessed had two remedies; one a suit for separate possession by partition; and the second a suit in accordance with terms of S. 9 of Specific Relief Act, 1877".
MESNE PROFIT:
Any person in possession of the property enjoying benefit therefrom to the exclusion of rightful owner, he would be liable to pay rent or mesne profit to the person who has been dispossessed or deprived of his property. In a case titled: Muhammad Anwar Vs Dr. Gohar Ali, reported in 2007 CLC 621 Karachi, it is held that, "Co-owner in possession to the exclusion of other co-owner in such case, could be held liable to the extent of his unauthorized or hostile occupation, possession or enjoyment thereof. Once a person established and Court came to a conclusion that person was entitled to any right or share in the property; and he was being deprived of use of such right or share in property by the other person, then the owner who was out of possession or enjoyment would become entitled to claim those profits actually received by person in unlawful possession or enjoyment of such part thereof, as the case could be".
QUESTION OF JURISDICTION IN CASE OF SHAMILAT PROPERTY:
In case titled: Barkat Ali Vs Sultan Mehmood, reported in 2009 CLC 899 Supreme Court Azad Kashmir, it is held that, "Suit land was shamilat Deh, about which the civil Court had limited jurisdiction and could not grant permanent injunction against all the Share-holders who possessed the land in the estate as well. Unless the shamilat Deh land partitioned by metes and bounds by the Revenue Authorities, no specific share could be declared to be in possession of any land-owner".
QUESTION OF POSSESSION OF CO-SHARER IN UNDIVIDED PROPERTY:
In case titled: Syed Shabir Hussain Shah and others Vs Asghar Hussain Shah, reported in 2007 SCMR 1884 Supreme Court, it is held by the Apex Court that, "Every Co-owner/Co-sharer would be considered to be in possession of each inch of un-partitioned land according to his share".
In case titled: Munawar Hussain Vs Amanat Ali, reported in 2007 YLR 1756 Lahore, it is held that, "any transfer out of joint khata even with regard to specific khasra number is always subject to final adjustment of partition. No person can claim his exclusive ownership with regard to a specific khasra number on the ground of having been purchased by him to the exclusion of other co-sharer".
Actual possession of a joint owner in an undivided property in of no value and it would not affect the rights of other co-sharers. As it is discussed by the august Lahore High Court in case titled: Muhammad Arif Vs Muhammad Hafeez, reported in 2007 MLD 1983, that, "Actual possession of a co-owner/co-sharer in case of joint land would be of no relevance. Such possession to all purposes would inure to benefit of remaining co-owners/co-sharers as well till such time partition was affected".
Sometimes it happens that a co-sharer started raising construction over an undivided property, without consulting and associating other co-sharers or without taking their prior approval. In such an eventualities, a co-sharer who is dis-agreed with the act of another co-sharer who is raising construction can come to the Court and stop him from such an act. In a case of Ghulam Rasool Vs Umar Hayat, reported in 2004 YLR 1136 Lahore, it is held by august Lahore High Court that, "Each co-share was owner in every part of the joint holdings to the extent of his entitlement—No co-sharer could be permitted to change character of the land to the exclusion of other co-sharers, without resorting to some lawful partition proceedings".
Possession of a co-sharer on a specific part of an undivided property carries little weight when the property comes to the partition proceedings. In a case of Muhammad Younas Vs Member (Judicial), Board of Revenue, Punjab, reported in 2004 YLR 793 Lahore, it is held while deciding the revision petition that, "Each and every co-sharer would be deemed to be owner and also in possession of every inch of joint land till such time, same is partitioned by metes and bounds—Actual possession over joint land would matter little, when land comes to partition".
In a case titled: Mst. Ghulam Fatima Vs Muhammad Munir, reported in 2004 CLC 995 Lahore, it is held that, "Dispute among co-sharers with respect to possession of their property could be settled through partition of the same from a competent Court".
In case titled: Khurshid Anwar Jalil Vs Muhammad Hafeez Mirza, reported in 2003 CLC 1695 Lahore, it is held that, "every joint owner shall be deemed to be in possession of each and every inch of joint property—If strong co-sharer after taking possession of more valuable part of joint property either alienates same or changes its character, then it cannot be said that weak/poor co-sharer may file suit for partition and till its decision, strong co-sharer may alienate same or change its character and throw his adversary into ditches or barren land by taking commercially valuable land abutting on road side or more fertile land—Such course cannot be allowed under principle of equity and justice".
CONSTRUCTION BENEFICIAL FOR OTHER CO-SHARERS:
Plea that the construction raised by one co-sharer would be beneficial to other co-sharers, as the same will increase the value of the property is disregarded by worthy Supreme Court of Pakistan in case of Fazal Vs Ghulam Muhammad, reported in 2003 SCMR 999 Supreme Court, wherein it is held that, "Defendants instead of raising construction on the property which was admittedly owned by the plaintiffs, should have first of all got the same partitioned and then might have constructed the portion of land falling in their share".
Suit for possession of specific khasra number is not maintainable against a co-sharer unless the whole khata is not partitioned. In a case of Dilmeer Vs Rajab Ali reported in 2003 MLD 484 Lahore, it is held that, "Trial Court could to pass a decree for specific khasra number from joint khata, unless joint khata was partitioned—Suit for possession against a co-sharer was not maintainable—Every co-sharer, however, would have a right to seek partition in accordance with law".
No co-sharer can be dispossessed from an immovable property which is of an undivided nature, except in accordance with law. In a case titled: Khawaja Masood Ahmad Vs Sajad Sarwar reported in 2002 MLD 434 Lahore, it is held that, "Person acquiring possession of immovable property at the very inception as co-owner could not be dispossessed from the same without proper partition and a decree/order of a competent Court in that regard".
WHEN ENTITLEMENT OF PARTY ESTABLISHED IN PROPERTY, PARTITION CANNOT BE DENIED:
It is prime duty of the party who wants the Court to issue an order of partition in his favour in respect of some immovable property that he should have first established that he is owner in the suit property or that he has some rights attached to the immovable property, along with other essential conditions of Jurisdiction, non-joinder or mis-joinder of parties, case for full partition. No private partition and if he succeeded in proving all essential requirements of partition, then it became his right that a decree or order for partition should be passed in his favour, if any other legal question not arises in his way. In case titled: Muhammad Anwar Vs Dr. Gohar Ali, reported in 2007 CLC 621 Karachi, it is held that, "Once entitlement of the plaintiff to the suit property was established, partition and division of property could not be denied, unless, of course, it was shown that such property was incapable of division and partition.
IMPLEADMENT OF PARTY/CO-SHARER AFTER PASSING OF PRELIMINARY DECREE:
As it is the established principle of law, set down by the superior Courts of Pakistan that no one should be condemned unheard and keeping in view the said principle, the Court always try to decide the disputes between the parties on merits and after hearing them and after affording them ample opportunity to safeguard their rights. Even a co-sharer can come to the Courts of law and defend his rights after passing of preliminary decree, in which he did not joined the proceedings. In a case titled: Mst. Maqsooda Vs Muhammad Azeem, reported in 2004 YLR 1019 Lahore, it is held that "So long land in dispute remained joint and final decree was not drawn up, any necessary party being vested with title or interest therein, could be impleaded".
ALIENATION OF PROPERTY/POSSESSION OF CO-SHARER IN JOINT KHATA:
In case titled: Muhammad Bashir Vs Noor Rehman, reported in 2011 MLD 1518 Lahore, the august Court held that, "Co-sharer in possession of specific property not beyond his share could protect his possession till taking place of partition in accordance with law".
In another case titled: Abdur Rehman VS Muhammad Siddique through L.Rs, reported in 2006 MLD 442 Lahore, it is held that, "Co-sharer in possession could, while alienating his share, transfer possession of his holding to another person which would be subject to partition. Co-sharer would be entitled to retain possession of land in joint khata till it was partitioned by metes and bounds".
A Co-sharer can alienate his share in an undivided property and there is no embargo upon him for doing so. In case titled: Mst. Bibi Jan VS Mir Zaman, reported in 2003 CLC 909 Peshawar, it is held that, "Co-owners in possession of specific area can alienate same subject to final adjustment at time of actual partition".
If a co-sharer sells in portion of property in an undivided khata, and deliver the possession of some specific area to the vendee, then the vendee can retain the possession of such land which was delivering to him by the vendor till final partition. In case titled Muhammad Aslam Vs Amir Muhammad Khan, reported in 2003 YLR 1870 Lahore, it is held that, "Co-sharer was entitled to transfer a specific khasra number under his exclusive possession to the vendee and the he (vendee) would continue in possession til the partition of the joint khata because the vendee stepped into the shoes of the vendor as co-sharer".
A Co-sharer can alienate a property in favour of other person but he cannot alienate a property with a specific description of boundaries unless the property is being properly partitioned. In a case titled: Muhammad Anwar Vs Mst. Nawab Bibi, reported in 2003 MLD 742 Lahore, it is held that, "Vendors although co-sharers, yet were not in possession of specific khasra numbers and, therefore, they were not entitled to transfer and lawfully alienate the plot with boundaries in favour of vendee".
CONCEPT OF OWELTY OF PARTITION:
Owelty is an equalization charge. It is the amount that one co-owner must pay to another after a suit of partition, so that each co-owner receives equal value from the property. This is done to achieve equality after exchange of parcels of land having different values or after an unequal partition of real property, or Owelty of partition is a sum of money paid by one of two caparceners or co-tenants to the other, when a partition has been effected between them, but the land not being susceptible of division into exactly equal shares, such payment is required to make the portions respectively assigned to them of equal value.
In case titled: Mrs. Saadia Muzaffar through her attorney Vs Mrs. Khadija Manzur, reported in 2006 CLC 401 Karachi, it is held that, "Co-owners would have equal right in every part of property until a regular partition was affected. Merely because defendant was in occupation of front portion of property purporting to be of higher value would not give him right to more benefit than what was possessed by plaintiff. Concept of owelty was not applicable to such case".
CONCLUSION
From above details we can assess that in civil suits the claims of partition of property is highly technical and complicated job. In order to accommodate the people it is need of hour that the Govt. should take serious steps for computerizing the revenue record or other property record. Further settlements in all districts of Pakistan are to be made regularly and at the time of settlement, if the revenue officers found any joint property as impliedly divided by co-sharers through an implied/silent private partition, to give it effect in the record without constraining them to have a recourse of litigation. Secondly it is also inevitable that the Hon'ble Supreme Court of Pakistan like laid downing the procedure in rent cases, as evident from Barkat Ali case 2000 SCMR 556, also considered the question of partitions for facilitating the people of Pakistan.

There is no cavil with the proposition that limitation for filing of an execution petition is not provided in limitation law and after enforcement of Law Reforms Ordinance, 1972 (XII of 1972) first application for execution of a decree would be governed by residuary Article 181 of Limitation Act, 1908, which provides period of 03 years. From perusal of Article 181 of the Limitation Act, 1908 read with Section 48 of the C.P.C., it becomes clear that for filing first application for execution, 03 years limitation will apply and any subsequent application will be run by the limitation provided in Section 48, C.P.C. which prescribes period of six years. No other law is relevant or applicable.

All the relevant documents were not brought on record. The trial court was not denuded of power to summon all the necessary revenue record and also to summon the patwari so as to supply omissions from both sides. It was also the duty of two higher appellate Courts. It seems that it was an appropriate case for exercise of power under Order XLI Rule 27 CPC for bringing on record additional evidence. The suo motu exercise of this power would also have been fully justified in the facts and circumstances of the case.

A crowded ceremony would provide little space/opportunity to the complainant to remember the faces and names of the participants and thus once the source of information about appellants’ participation in the crime is found suspect it would be unsafe to rely upon the testimony of a vulnerable witness alone, particularly when the appellants were not arrested alongside the co-accused.

Whether in presence of step mother minor will be brought up in a congenial atmosphere. This factor per se is no ground for refusing custody of minor to father if, he is otherwise found entitled to it. If some safeguards are provided S.C. is of the opinion that this factor by itself does not-deprive father from obtaining custody of his minor son. In absence of any adverse circumstance S.C. cannot presume that appellant/father will not look after or bring up minor with love and affection or due care. If any time some circumstances seriously prejudicial to interest and welfare of minor are brought on record duly supported by tangible evidence respondent shall be free to move Court of competent Jurisdiction afresh on basis of a new cause of action or grievance.

Chapter 9 of the Punjab Land Revenue Act, 1889 provides for a detailed procedure for the partition of land holdings. Sections 110-126 of the Act confer right to a co-sharer to get his joint property partition without any restriction. Chapter 9 envisages two types of partition[i]. Firstly, a partition of joint holding by the owners of the land and secondly, partition of tenancy by the Court Tenants.

Application for the partition of his share in the land or tenancy if the following conditions are fulfilled:

  1. The right of occupancy must subsist at the time submission of the application.
  2. The share is recorded under Chapter 4 as belonging to him at the time of the date of application.
  3. The right to share has been established by the decree which is still subsisting at the date of application.
  4. A written acknowledgement of the right has been executed by the all persons interested in the admission or denial thereof.

Among all the four conditions mentioned above, first condition is mandatory and this kind of occupancy can be established by fulfilling either of the other three conditions.

A mortgagee cannot apply for partition unless he proves that he is entitled to it by custom or by terms of his mortgage

In  the  wake  of  supply/provision  of  natural  gas  as  a new  source  of  energy  to  the  domestic  and  commercial  consumers, the  Pakistan  Penal  Code,  1860  was  amended  through  Criminal Law  (Amendment  Act)  2011  (Act  XX  of  2011)  so  as  to  incorporate  a penal  regime  to  cope  with  cases  of  theft,  pilferage,  interference  and tampering,  etc.  with  the  distribution  system  and  matters  ancillary therewith,  covering  wide  spectrum  of  products  under  the  definition of  petroleum.  It  provided  a  mechanism  for  prosecution  of  offences set  out  in  the  newly  inserted  chapter  i.e.  Chapter  XVII  A.  Through Act  No.XI  of  2016,  the  parliament  enacted  The  Gas  (Theft,  Control &  Recovery)  Act  2016  which  came  into  force  throughout  Pakistan on  23rd  of  March,  2016.  The  new  law  comprehensively  deals  with the  cases  of  theft,  tampering  with  auxiliary  or  distribution  gas pipelines  and  with  meters  thereof  including  causing  wastage  or damage  thereto.  It  sets  up  a  tribunal  comprising  a  District& Sessions  Judge  to  prosecute  both  offences  as  well  as  claims  for recovery  of  loss  to  the  public  exchequer.  A  comparative  analysis  of changes  brought  about  by  the  Act  clearly  illustrates  that  the  new regime  under  exclusive  jurisdiction  solely  deals  with  the  cases  of gas  with  no  change  in  the  generic  character  of  the  offences  earlier enlisted  under  the  Chapter  XVII  A  of  the  Pakistan  Penal  Code, 1860  except  that  it  provided  a  new  mechanism  for  assumption  of exclusive  jurisdiction  by  the  Gas  Utility  Court  to  try  offences  as  a Court  of  Session  under  the  Code  of  Criminal  Procedure,  1898  (Act V  of  1898),  however,  it  required  a  complaint,  in  writing  by  a  person authorized  in  this  behalf  by  a  Gas  Utility  Company.  The  offences listed  above  remained  cognizable  as  well  as  non-bailable  with  only immunity  extended  to  a  domestic  consumer,  otherwise  liable  to  be dealt  with  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  the  Code  ibid.  It  is in  the  backdrop  of  above  statutory  changes,  the  petitioners  sought annulment  of  First  Information  Report  on  the  grounds  enumerated above.

[02/02, 11:49 am] +: There  are  no  shortcuts  in  criminal  prosecutions  and  it  is certainly  far  less  than  expedient  to  pre-empt  designated  tribunals to  exercise  jurisdiction  so  as  to  try  offences  on  the  strength  of evidence  brought-forth  by  the  prosecution,  the  only  known  method both  to  establish  the  charge  as  well  as  to  vindicate  a  defence. Similarly,  while  an  accused  is  certainly  entitled  to  a  fair  trial  under “Due  Process  of  Law”,  it  is  also  sovereign  attribute  of  State  to  carry out  prosecutions  through  its  agencies  in  accordance  with  law  with a  reasonable  opportunity  to  drive  home  the  charge  against  the offenders  to  maintain/enforce  its  writ  and  effectively  uphold majesty  of  laws  within  the  realm.  It  is  far  more  important  when  at risk  is  a  resource  commonly  owned  by  the  people.  Equality  before law  without  equal  protection  thereof  is  a  travesty.

2021 SCMR 56

[02/02, 11:49 am] +: It  is  an  admitted  fact  that  the  allegation  against  the petitioners  is  that  they  resorted  to  indiscriminate  firing  without  causing  any injury  to  anyone;  however,  the  deceased  sustained  only  a  single  shot whereas  none  of  the  prosecution  witnesses  sustained  even  a  scratch.  It  is no  body’s  case  that  the  prosecution  witnesses  escaped  from  the  firing  of the  petitioners  due  to  some  hurdle  or  safety  measure.  The  occurrence  has taken  place  in  open  and  if  there  would  have  been  any  intent  at  the  part  of the  petitioners,  there  was  nothing  which  could  restrain  them  from committing  the  occurrence  on  broader  spectrum.  During  the  course  of investigation  though  recovery  of  four  empties  of  pistol  .30  bore  and  three empties  of  Kalashnikov  were  recovered  from  the  spot  but  as  no  weapon was  affected  from  the  petitioners  during  the  course  of  investigation, therefore,  mere  recovery  of  empties  would  be  a  question  to  be  resolved  by the  trial  court  after  recording  of  prosecution  evidence.

2021 SCMR 63

[02/02, 11:49 am] +: There  is  a  wide  variety  of  offences  both  under  the Pakistan  Penal  Code,  1860  as  well  as  under  various  special  laws that  require  prior  sanction  for  prosecution  for  the  purposes  of assumption  of  cognizance  by  the  trial  Court,  the  requirement  does not  stand  in  impediment  to  the  registration  of  First  Information Report,  arrest  of  an  offender  or  commencement  of  investigation thereof  as  the  clog  of  sanction  transiently  relates  to  the  steps preparatory  thereto  by  the  authority  designated  under  the  Statute.

The  burden  of  proof  to  establish  the  gifts  was  on  the  beneficiaries of  the  gifts,  not  the  donees.

[02/02, 11:49 am] +: Section  42(1)  of  the  Land  Revenue  Act,  1967  (‘the  Act’)  requires the  person  in  whose  favour  the  land  has  been  transferred/alienated  to report  the  same  to  the  revenue  authorities,  which  in  the  present  case would  have  been  the  donees  of  the  gifts  but  they  did  not  do  so.  And, subsections  (6)  and  (7)  of  section  42  of  the  Act  require  that  before passing  an  order  sanctioning  change  in  the  register  of  mutations  in respect  of  any  right  which  has  been  acquired  the  person  from  whom  it is  acquired  should  be  identified  by  ‘two  respectable  persons,  preferably the  Lambardar  or  members  of  Zila  Council,  Tehsil  Council  or  Town Council  or  Union  Council’  but  the  two  said  witnesses  were  not  such persons.  In  the  present  case  an  extremely  old  man  is  stated  to  have gifted  his  property  by  excluding  his  five  daughters.  These  unusual circumstances  should  have  alerted  the  Revenue  staff  to  be  more cautious  and  before  sanctioning  the  gift  mutations  they  should  have ensured  the  identity  of  the  donor,  should  have  obtained  a  copy  of  his identity  card,  should  have  obtained  his  signature  and/or  thumb impression,  should  on  account  of  his  advanced  age  and  frail  state  of mind  ensured  that  the  donor  knew  that  he  was  making  the  said  gifts.  In the  circumstances  it  would  also  have  been  prudent  to  have  issued notices  to  the  donor’s  daughters  to  bring  it  to  their  knowledge  that  their father  was  gifting  away  all  his  lands.  The  burden  of  proof  to  establish that  the  gifts  lay  on  the  petitioners,  which  they  did  not  discharge.  On the  contrary  there  was  sufficient  material  on  record  to  suggest  that  the petitioners  had  acted  dishonestly  and  gift  mutations  Nos.  449,  451  and 452 were illegally made in their favour.   

2021 SCMR 73

[02/02, 11:49 am] +: It has  become all too  common to keep legal  heirs deprived and  to  disobey  judgments  on  the  pretext  that  a  higher  forum  has  been approached  even  when  the  operation  of  the  impugned  order/judgment has  not  been  suspended.    Needless  to  state  merely  challenging  an order/judgment  does  not  suspend  its  operation.  Probably  the petitioners  will  now  await  the  execution  of  the  decree  against  them  and file untenable objections therein, and if their objections  are  dismissed to commence  another  round  of  litigation  assailing  such  order.  Judgments and decrees of courts of competent jurisdiction must be abided by. 

2021 SCMR 73

[02/02, 11:49 am] 2021 SCMR 69

Visit  by  the witnesses  on  the  fateful  day,  cannot  be  viewed  as  improbable  or unnatural.  A  father  visiting  his  distressed  daughter  to  mediate  an ongoing  dispute  cannot  be  characterized  as  a  witness  arriving  at  the scene  per  chance.

[02/02, 11:49 am] +: The  Constitution  of  the  Islamic  Republic  of  Pakistan (the  ‘Constitution’)  safeguards  property  (including  inherited property)  under  Article  24(1)  of  the  Constitution  and protection  of  women  and  children  is  guaranteed  by  Article 25(3)  of  the  Constitution.  The  Constitution  sets  out  the  goals which  the  people  of  Pakistan  have  set  out  for  themselves  in the  ‘Principles  of  Policy’,  which  include  the  protection  of ‘mother  and  the  child’  (Article  35)  and  require  the  ‘promotion of  social  justice  and  eradication  of  social  evils’  (Article  37). Depriving  a  mother  and  her  child  from  their  inheritance  does not  protect  them  but  preys  on  them.  Such  conduct  is  a prevalent  social  evil  and  inherently  unjust.  It  is  expected that  the  organ  and  authority  of  the  State  will  act  in accordance  with  the  Principles  of  Policy  as  provided  by Article  29(1)  of  the  Constitution.  Therefore,  claims  by orphans  and  widows  alleging  that  they  have  been  deprived  of their  inheritance  must  be  expeditiously  decided  by  the concerned  organ  and  authority  of  the  State,  including  the courts.   

2021 SCMR 73

[02/02, 11:49 am] + The  revenue  authorities  must  also  be  extra  vigilant when  purported  gifts  are  made  to  deprive  daughters  and widows  from  what  would  have  constituted  their  shares  in  the inheritance  of  an  estate.  The  concerned  officers  must  fully satisfy  themselves  as  to  the  identity  of  the  purported donor/transferee  and  strict  compliance  must  be  ensured with  the  applicable  laws,  as  repeatedly  held  by  this  Court,

VVVI. MUST READ JUDGEMENT.

 

There is no cavil to the proposition that for the purposes of proof of a document falling under the purview of Article 17 of the QSO, two attesting witnesses must be examined as per requirement of Article 79 thereof.  However, the rigors and clutches of the said requirement envisaged under Article 17, read with 79 of QSO, subside where the execution of a document is admitted. In such like situation, the plaintiff is not bound to produce both the marginal witnesses in order to prove the execution of the agreement. 

Article 81 is an exception to the general rule that where a document is required by law to be attested, the same cannot be used in evidence unless two attesting witnesses are called for the purposes of proving its execution. The simple reading of Article 81 shows that where the execution of a document is admitted by the executant himself, the examination of attesting witnesses is not necessary. As the agreement in the instant case had been admitted in the prior suit filed by the respondent against the appellant, by recording statement before the Trial Court, the non-production of both the marginal witnesses is not fatal to the case of the respondent. Moreover, in terms of Article 91 of the QSO, presumption of genuineness is attached to documents forming part of the judicial proceedings.

 

Suit for specific performance of the contract based on an agreement to sell can be decreed even if the second marginal witnesses of the agreement is not produced by the vendee in compliance of Article 79 of QSO in cases which fall within the purview of Article 81 which is an exception to the rule contained under Article 79 of the QSO.
