' IHSAN-UL-HAQ CHAUDHRY, J.---This appeal under section 3 of the Law Reforms (Amendment) Act, 1972 is directed against the order, dated 27-6-1990 passed by a learned Single Judge of this Court whereby he dismissed in limine Writ Petition No,4531 of 1990 filed by the petitioner.
2. MRs, Rubina Muhajar, appellant is the wife of respondent No,6, Squadron Leader Tanvir Ahmad Muhajar, who is serving in the Pakistan Air Force at Mianwali. According to her case, on 25-4-1990 a confidential letter was addressed by respondent No,2 to her husband stating that the appellant had been indulging in loose gossip and scandulous insinuations against the wives of other Officers without any justification. According to the appellant, this assertion was false. She, therefore, filed Constitutional petition praying that the respondents be directed to produce the letter and the material on the basis of which it was issued and further that the contents of the letter may be quashed. It is also prayed that a case under section 500, P.P.C. Be registered. The learned Single Judge finding no merit in this petition dismissed it in limine.
3. It was contended by Mr. Khakan Babar, learned counsel for the appellant that under no law, was any of the respondents competent to issue such a letter which contains false allegations against the appellant and, the learned Single Judge was not justified in dismissing the writ petition.
After hearing the learned counsel for the appellant, we do not find any merit in this appeal. The impugned letter is in the nature of a confidential communication from the superior officer to his subordinate and, therefore, it is highly doubtful whether the appellant can raise any cudgels in this behalf. Be that as it may, the learned Single Judge has already observed that if the appellant has any objection to the contents of the aforesaid letter, she can represent against it and explain the position to respondent No,2, who has been directed to afford an opportunity to explain her position.
These observations should suffice to allay any apprehension in the mind of the appellant.
' No interference in the impugned letter is called for. The Intra-Court Appeal is dismissed in limine.
