976/2017 Const. P. Mst. Zareen Ali Wd/O Salman Ali Ahmed (Petitioner) V/S Ajaz Ali Sehto & Others (Respondent)
Sindh High Court
Bench: Hon'ble Chief Justice Mr. Justice Muhammad Shafi Siddiqui(Author)
Order Date: 12-FEB-18
It does not lie in the mouth of petitioner either to challenge the title of the previous landlord i.e. Bilal A. Malik to whom he (petitioner) was tendering the rent or to whom the previous landlord has delegated such powers by way of letter of attornment and the relationship was thus rightly held by the Courts below. There is no cavil that on the basis of a sale agreement only such relationship cannot be decided but if such sale agreement is coupled with notice under section 18 of Sindh Rented Premises Ordinance, 1979 along with letter of attornment then it cannot be said to be just an agreement of sale. Such letter of attornment delegates all such authorities and powers required by a subsequent buyer to initiate proceedings, as initiated by respondent No.1 in the matter.
