ORDER

' Muhammad Iqbal petitioner has submitted that he alongwith his other brothers and sisters are entitled to the property of Meraj Bibi and also Ghulam Muhammad. However, respondent No,1 who was also related to the deceased in connivance with other heirs got the property mutated through Mutation No,407 in their names to the exclusion of the legal heirs. The matter was brought to the notice of the Additional Deputy Commissioner (Cons.), Sargodha who vide his order, dated 22-6- 2000 cancelled the mutation and ordered the Consolidation Officer to hear the parties, determine as to who are the heirs and then enter/sanction a fresh mutation. A civil suit has also been filed by the respondents as it has become apparent from the contents of the order of the Additional Deputy Commissioner (Cons.), Sargodha.

2. Learned counsel through the instant writ petition states that oral statement was made by the respondents whereby the petitioner and others were deprived of their share and as such it is contended that a criminal case is made out for which the concerned Police Officer be directed to register a case.

3. I cannot subscribe to the arguments raised by the learned counsel. The matter is before the Revenue Authorities where partial relief has been allowed to the petitioner. A civil suit is also pending in which the heirs have to be ascertained and then their shares have to be apportioned.

According to the so-called misstatement, which, too stands rectified no cognizable offence is made out to call for interference or direction to concerned S.H.O. Dismissed in limine.
