Crl. Misc. No. 35325-T of 2022, decided on 8.6.2022.

Judgment

The petitioner seeks transfer of Criminal Revision titled ‘Abdul Rauf v. The State, etc’ pending in the Court of Sarfraz Ali, Additional Sessions Judge, Depalpur, Okara.

2. Learned counsel, for the petitioner submitted that the complainant of the above mentioned case was an Advocate practicing at Depalpur, thus, the petitioner was not expecting fair decision of the above case and to dispel the said impression it would be appropriate/ expedient if the above mentioned Criminal Revision is transferred to some other competent Court at District Headquarter, Okara.

3. Heard. Available record perused.

4. No serious allegation has been levelled against the Presiding Officer and this petition has been filed on the basis of mere apprehension. It is settled by now that no lis can be decided on the basis of mere apprehension. The grounds of this petition as well as the arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner were neither convincing nor sufficient to transfer the above mentioned revision petition, thus, I proceed to dismiss this petition, being meritless, in limine.

(A.A.K.)          Petition dismissed
