Judgment text as reported

SAIMA NAZIR VS GUARDIAN JUDGE (IV), LAHORE Repeal by implication---Scope---Legislature is normally not presumed to have intended to keep two contradictory enactments on the statute book with the intention of repealing the one with the other, without expressing an intention to do so---Such an intention cannot be imputed to the legislature without strong reasons and unless that is inevitable---Before adopting the last-mentioned course, it is necessary for the courts to exhaust all possible and reasonable constructions which offer an escape from repeal by implication.
