Judgment text as reported

MUHAMMAD YOUSAF VS PROVINCE OF SINDH art. 10a---Due process and fair trial---Object, purpose and scope---Due process is a prerequisite that needs to be respected in all stratums---Right to fair trial is a fundamental right in case of stringency and rigidity in affording such right---It is the function, rather a responsibility of Court to protect such right, so that no injustice and unfairness is done to anybody---Concept of natural justice is intended to restrain arbitrary actions within the bounds of upholding and protecting supremacy of law---Such fundamental principle is consistently and squarely applicable to proceedings, whether judicial quasi-judicial or administrative, except where law specifically and unambiguously excludes its application in peculiar facts and circumstances of a case---Solitary pragmatic importance of rule of natural justice is to prevent injustice and miscarriage of justice and ensure that justice is not only done, but it is also manifestly and undoubtedly seen to be done.
