Judgment & Decree

‑‑‑Arts. 4 & 199‑‑Constitutional petition was instituted on 11‑11‑1984 seeking a direction to Station House Officer of Police Station for registration of a case against Tehsildar which was last fixed for hearing on 3‑3‑1986‑‑Petitioner during the last 2‑1/2 years did not care to get it fixed for hearing‑‑Other adequate remedy was also available to petitioner‑‑Relief under Constitutional jurisdiction being discretionary, High Court declined to direct registration of a case after many years of alleged occurrence. Masood Mirza for Petitioner. Muhammad Aslam Chatha for Respondent No.3. This is a Constitutional petition by Abdul Karim seeking a direction to S.H.O. Bhawana, District Jhang for registration of a case against Nisar Ahmad Tehsildar respondent No.3. It is alleged that in spite of pendency of a petition for transfer of the disputed property under Settlement Scheme No.VII, the' respondent No.3 went to the said property, demolished the structure and threw out the household articles lying therein. This petition was instituted on 11‑11‑1984. It was last fixed for hearing on 3‑3‑1986. The petitioner did not take any step to get this case fixed for hearing and final disposal at least during the last 2‑1/2 years. The petitioner has other adequate remedy available to him. The relief under Constitutional jurisdiction is discretionary. I am, therefore, not inclined to direct registration of a case after many years of the alleged occurrence. This petition is accordingly dismissed. N.H.Q./A‑745/L Petition dismissed.
