17/2003 Civil Revision Mst.Aisha Kazi and others (Applicant) V/S Anwar Ahmed (died),through his L.Rs. (Respondent) Sindh High Court

Bench: Hon'ble Chief Justice Mr. Justice Muhammad Shafi Siddiqui(Author) Order Date: 12-FEB-19

The registration of a document does not help in proving the contents of the document. This burden is to be discharged separately under the Evidence Act, 1872 and/or the Qanun-e-Shahadat Order, 1984. Mere alleged registration does not prove the contents of the instrument. The quantum of evidence to establish a testamentary paper must always depend upon the circumstances of each case. Burden to prove execution lies on those propounding a Will to affirm positively execution of the Will. Opposite side should not be burdened with onus to prove that Will had not been executed or that it was a forged one.
