Judgment & Decree

NASIM HASAN SHAH, J.

In this case it was held in the impugned judgment that the superior right granted under section 25(3)(d) of Martial Law Regulation 115 to a tenant to resist a pre-emption suit was available even after the tenant purchased the land under his tenancy and had become its owner. The judgment is now reported as Piara Khan v. Bashir Ahmad 1991 SCMR 2107. In support of this review petition Mr. Shamim Abbas Bokhari has pointed out that another Bench of this Court in Malik Pir Bakhsh etc. v. Ali Muhammad 1992 SCMR 1031 has taken a different view and he submits that the matter requires further consideration, if possible, before a larger Bench. We do not consider that such a plea is admissible in these proceedings. The Court, in this case, took cognizance of the controversy and has dealt with it fully. In case another view is expressed in another case, it I cannot be a ground for review. In fact, the petitioner in this case is seeking a re-hearing of the case; such a prayer cannot be entertained in review i` jurisdiction and it does not fall within the scope of review proceedings.
