Bench: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Adnan-ul-Karim Memon(Author), Hon'ble Mr. Justice Muhammad Hasan (Akber) Order Date: 19-MAY-26
Since the allegations raised by the respondent pertain to factual determination of ownership status as well as compliance with building regulations, which cannot be effectively adjudicated without affording an opportunity of hearing to all concerned parties, principles of due process and fair trial necessitate that the matter be examined afresh by the regulatory authority. Accordingly, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, the head of the SBCA is directed to afford the respondent a meaningful opportunity of hearing, consider all relevant material, and pass a reasoned and speaking order strictly in accordance with law within a period of two months. The authority shall also ensure that its decision is based on a proper evaluation of factual and legal aspects, including the nature of ownership and the applicability of building regulations. The listed review application is, therefore, disposed of in the above terms.
