IN THE HIGH COURT OF SINDH BENCH AT SUKKUR
C.P No. D- 1540 of 2016.
______________________________________________________________________ DATE ORDER WITH SIGNATURE
OF JUDGE ______________________________________________________________________
1. For orders on CMA 4248/2016 (U/A)
2. For katcha Peshi.
27.04.2016
Petitioner
and his counsel called absent, no intimation received.
...............
Through instant
petition, the petitioner has sought for issuance of directions to respondent No.9 i.e Circle Officer, Anti-Corruption department, Khairpur to conduct
an enquiry in respect of allocated funds and its utilization by respondents i.e Engineers of irrigation department, Khairpur,
in respect of Mirwah canal and small minors. However
from perusal of contents of instant petition and the record, it appears that
nothing has been placed on record, which may require this Court to probe into
the allegations or to get an enquiry conducted through respondent No.9 relating
to funds which have been allocated for such purpose. No document whatsoever has
been attached along with this petition to support the allegations which appear
to be vague and generalized in nature. As such, instant petition cannot be entertained
by this Court in absence of any material, particularly, when the forum has been
provided for holding a complaint against
any public functionary on the allegations of corruption or misappropriation of
public funds in any manner, which forum has not been approached in the instant
matter while exercising Constitutional jurisdiction under article 199 of
Constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan, 1973. This Court cannot direct
any public functionary or the agency to initiate some fishing or roving inquiry
on the basis of generalized and vague allegations particularly in the absence
of any material to support such allegations.
Accordingly, we do not
find any substance in the instant petition, which is dismissed in limine along
with listed applications.
