Judgment text as reported

AHMAD OMAR SHEIKH VS GOVERNMENT OF SINDH through Chief Secretary If a statute has expressly provided for something without any ambiguity then there is no question of the courts interpreting the same as the legislative intent is clear and the Act/Ordinance must be given effect to unless it is deemed to be contrary to the Constitution--- Judiciary's role of interpretation of the statute only arises when the statute is to a certain extent either unclear or ambiguous or is prima facie in violation of the Constitution and in such cases it is for the judiciary to interpret that piece of legislation by trying to ascertain the intent of Parliament in passing that legislation.
