ResultAppeal dismissed

' Mr. Asghar Hussain, learned counsel for the appellant has read the order of the learned Rent Controller with me. In view of the newly added proviso to section 14 of Sind Rented Premises Ordinance this appeal has no merit and is to be dismissed. The newly added proviso runs as under:- "Provided that nothing in this subsection shall apply where the landlord has rented out the building after he has retired or attained the age of sixty years or as the case may be, has become widow or orphan."

2. It is admitted position in the case that one of the four tenements in the building had fallen vacant and was available to the landlord which the landlord has let out. This case is, therefore, hit by this proviso. The appellant, therefore, cannot take an advantage of this special provision of law namely section 14(1); Appellant has a remedy under section 15 if he so chooses. This appeal is, therefore, dismissed with no order as to costs.
