Judgment & Decree
MAQBOOL BAQAR, J.
Mr. Muhammad Sachal R. Awan Advocate files power for respondent No.4 and submits that the petitioner No.1 has already married to one Gulzar and her alleged marriage with petitioner No.2 is, therefore, not only illegal and void but also against the injunctions of Islam. Learned State Counsel submits a statement duly signed by S.H.O. Pangrio district Badin, the respondent No.1, wherein it is stated that neither he has harassed the petitioners nor is there any case pending against them at P.S. Pangrio District Badin. The S.H.O. present undertakes not to harass, intimidate or pressurize the petitioners and further that action if at all, shall be initiated against the petitioners strictly in accordance with law. Being satisfied with the statement of the S.H.O. learned counsel for the petitioner does not press this petition, which is accordingly disposed of with directions to the S.H.O. present to provide protection to the petitioners. Mr. Muhammad Sachal Awan submits that it may be clarified that the above order shall not come in the way of respondent No.4 or the alleged husband of the petitioner namely Gulzar and that they may be set at liberty to file an appropriate suit before the concerned Family Court. It hardly needs any mention that the present order would not come in the way of respondent No.4 or any one, claiming to be the husband of the petitioner to seek appropriate remedy from the Court of competent jurisdiction.
