Summary: Allah Nawaz alias Kala against his conviction and death sentence for committing murder. The murder reference was sent by the trial court for the confirmation of the death sentence. The case arose from a judgment passed by the Additional Sessions Judge, Ahmedpur East, Bahawalpur, convicting Allah Nawaz under section 302(b) PPC for committing the murder of Munir Ahmed.The incident took place about one year and three months before the hearing date, where Munir Ahmed and Allah Nawaz were quarreling. In the altercation, Allah Nawaz stabbed Munir Ahmed in the belly, resulting in his death. The motive behind the murder was stated to be a land dispute between the complainant, Hazoor Bakhsh (father of the deceased), and the father of the accused.During the trial, the prosecution presented witnesses, including the complainant and other eyewitnesses, as well as medical evidence supporting the nature of the injuries sustained by the deceased.The defense, on the other hand, attempted to establish an alibi for the accused, claiming he was elsewhere at the time of the incident.Upon review, the court found discrepancies in the motive presented by the complainant, as well as issues with the recovery of the alleged murder weapon. However, based on the testimonies of eyewitnesses and medical evidence, the court upheld the conviction of Allah Nawaz but reduced the sentence from death to imprisonment for life, citing extenuating circumstances.Thus, Criminal Appeal No. 434 of 2010 was dismissed, and Murder Reference No. 07 of 2011 was answered in the negative, confirming that the death sentence was not upheld. The court awarded the benefit of section 382-B Cr.P.C to the appellant Allah Nawaz alias Kala.

Summary: The petitioner was a 'Transferee employee' who had served in the Civil Aviation Department, Government of Pakistan, Ministry of Defence, until his services were transferred to the Civil Aviation Authority in 1982. He retired from service in January 2000. The President issued an Office Memorandum on 05.07.2010 fixing rates of medical allowance for pensioners, but the petitioner did not receive the benefit of this Memorandum, and his medical allowance was increased only to Rs. 1000, which he found insufficient to cover his medical expenses.The petitioner filed a complaint with the Wafaqi Mohtasib in April 2011 but did not receive any result due to the vacant seat of Wafaqi Mohtasib at that time. Subsequently, he filed the instant petition seeking the direction to the respondents (Ministry of Defence, etc.) for the grant of medical allowance as per the Office Memorandum dated 05.07.2010.The respondents argued that the petition was not maintainable as the Authority's regulations governing employees' terms and conditions were not statutory in nature. They contended that the employees of the Authority were not civil servants and therefore not eligible for the benefit of the Office Memorandum. They further stated that the petitioner's entitlement to allowances and benefits was subject to approval by the Board of the Authority.The court held that the writ petition was maintainable based on previous judgments. The court also noted that the petitioner, being a 'Transferee employee,' was entitled to the same pay and allowances he received in his previous department. Moreover, the Civil Aviation Authority's service regulations stated that the retirement and pensionary benefits applicable to Federal Government employees should also apply to Authority employees. Therefore, the refusal of the respondents to grant the petitioner the benefit of the Office Memorandum was unjustifiable.As a result, the court accepted the petitioner's petition and directed the respondents to pay the petitioner the Medical Allowance as specified in the Office Memorandum dated 05.07.2010 from its issuance date, adjusting the amount already paid to the petitioner in lieu of medical allowance.
