IN THE COURT OF JAVED MEHMOOD SINDHU,

ADDITIONAL DISTRICT JUDGE, MULTAN.

Javed Mukhtiar Vs. Javed Iqbal

CIVIL APPEAL

List of Authorities referred to by the counsel for appellant.

1. 2000 CLC 419 at 420 Sec-54 T.P. Act---Sale of immovable


property---mere registration of sale
deed would not operate to pass title
to the vendee. Where there was
neither the possession of the
property alleged to have been sold
nor any proof of payment of
consideration money was available,
mere registration of sale deed would
not operate to pass title to the
vendee.

2. PLJ 1996 Pesh 214 at 216 Sale---sec 54 T.P. Act envisages the
transfer of ownership of immovable
property for a price paid or
promised---to enforce the sale
transaction, transferee is under legal
obligation to establish,
firstly that transfer was affected by a
person having a title or authority to
create right,
secondly it was backed by passing
of sale consideration and
thirdly it was accompanied by
delivery of possession---
mere registration of document by
registrar by itself does not furnish
proof of these elements which must
co-exist prior to execution and
registration of deed---
Onus to establish all these pre-
requisites lies on transferee.

3. NLR 1986 Civil 146 at 147 Evidence Act, S.68---Person relying


on a document is bound to proof its
execution---fact that document is
registered would make no

Art. 118---Exchange of land claimed
to have been effected fraudulently
and by misrepresentation---onus to
prove---plaintiff made a statement
on oath in court that exchange in
question had been effected through
fraud and misrepresentation---onus,
after such statement, would shift to
defendant to prove that document of
exchange was executed voluntarily
and of free will.

documents whose execution is
denied---unexceptionable.

8. PLD 1979 B.J. 31. Evidence Act, S.68---Execution of
