Judgment & Decree
FAZAL ILAHI KHAN, J: --Leave to appeal is prayed .for in this petition against the .judgment and order of Peshawar High Court, Circuit Bench, Abbottabad dated 7-7-1994 whereby interim stay granted by the District Judge was set aside and the order of the trial Court refusing to grant temporary injunction was restored.
2. Respondent is a co-sharer in Khasra No.3081 which total measures 341 Kanals- 7 Marlas. He wanted to construct a house on a portion of it in his' possession. Petitioner objected to such construction and filed the present suit for injunction on the ground that the property is jointly owned by the parties, therefore, respondent/defendant be restrained from -raising any construction till such time that regular partition of the land takes place. He also made an application for temporary injunction. The application for temporary injunction was disallowed by the learned trial Judge on 12-12-1993. In appeal filed by the petitioner/plaintiff the learned District Judge set aside the trial Court order and granted temporary injunction. .
3. Respondent/defendant aggrieved by the judgment and order of the learned District Judge approached the High Court in Civil Revision No.215 of 1994. The learned High Court found that in the period starting from 1973 till 1992 numerous mutations of sale have been sanctioned of small pieces of land, out of the suit Khasra number for construction purposes and after carving out Tatimmas houses have been constructed on such land. That even portion of the land in possession of the petitioner which measures 10 Marlas was earlier sold by Muhammad Feroz one of the co-owners to Muhammad Sajjad Khan who later sold it to him. This land has its own identity from rest of the land in suit. On such finding the revision petition was accepted, the judgment and order of the learned District Judge was set aside. However, direction was given to the petitioner to furnish security to the effect that he would remove the construction in case of succession of the respondent regarding the suit land.
4. We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and have perused the judgments of the lower Courts. We are not inclined to interfere with the interim order passed by the learned High Court which is in conformity with the law laid down by this Court in such like cases and in which sufficient safeguard has been made of the interest of both the parties. This petition is, I therefore, dismissed. M.BA./S-948/S Petition dismissed.
