MUHAMMAD SHAMIM ALI VS Mst. ASMA BEGUM S. 5 & Sched.---Constitution of Pakistan, Arts. 185(3) & 199---Suit for recovery/return of dowry articles---Claim of dowry receipts being fake and fabricated---Factual controversy---Non-interference by High Court and Supreme Court---Petitioner's (husband's) assertions about supposedly fake and fabricated receipts of dowry articles was a factual inquiry, which was undertaken by the Family Court and the Appellate Court and could not have been done by the High Court in its jurisdiction under Article 199 of the Constitution, or the Supreme Court under its jurisdiction under Article 185 (3) of the Constitution---Therefore, the High Court, in the impugned judgment rightly declined to interfere in the findings of the two fora below---Petition was dismissed and leave to appeal was refused.
