Court: Karachi
PLD 2024
the basis of evidential record and material produced by the parties, whereas in order to avert delayed justice expeditious trial was the requirement of law---Petitioner had also filed another application for transfer of another case lodged by a separate complainant wherein grounds for transfer were almost identical which showed the intention of petitioner to overawe the Judicial Officer---On one hand, Judicial Officers were expected to be fair and impartial and on the other hand, it could not be allowed that they might be subjected to undue harassment by way of moving baseless applications seeking transfer of the cases---Outlined grounds in the petition for seeking transfer of the case mainly roamed around the apprehension of unfair treatment due to expected biasness; therefore, it was essential to see the legal value of apprehension in such situation and the concept of biasness---Mere apprehension in the mind of a party about injustice at the hands of Presiding Officer was no ground for transfer of a case---Petitioner had not pointed out any material through which it could be inferred that Magistrate was personally interested in the case or was biased towards the petitioner in any manner---Allegation of bribery was also not made expressly nor advocated vigorously; so much so, it was conceded that trial was at initial stage, therefore, merely on the basis that Magistrate was the caste fellow of counsel for the complainant and was conducting trial expeditiously, alleged biasness could not be anticipated at such stage of the proceedings---Petition was dismissed accordingly
