MANZAR ABBAS VS Mian MUHAMMAD AZAM Ss. 60 & 63---Nomination papers of candidate, acceptance of---Scope---Appellant challenged order passed by the Returning Officer, whereby he, by over-ruling the objections of the appellant, accepted the nomination papers of respondent---Objection of the appellant was that the respondent concealed registration of a criminal case (FIR) against him---Validity---There was nothing on record from which it could be inferred that the respondent was associated in the said case either at the stage of inquiry or investigation, therefore, it could not be construed that the respondent knowingly furnished false information in said regard---There appeared no other reason to conceal the case, as even disclosure of the FIR would not amount to his disqualification---Non-disclosure of pending case(s) cannot be equated with non-disclosure of a criminal case in which a person has been convicted and one which may entail his disqualification---Appeal , being merit-less, was dismissed.
