Judgment text as reported

SHER ASFANDYAR KHAN VS NEELOFAR SHAH Ss. 7 & 9---Qanun-e-Shahadat (10 of 1984), Arts. 72, 74, 75 & 76---Corporate affairs---Standard of proof---Principle---Standard of proof required in company matters is that of balance of probabilities rather than proof beyond reasonable doubt---In civil matters, this standard requires Court to assess whether, on the evidence as a whole, a fact is more likely than not to be true---It is neither necessary nor appropriate to frame formal issues or conduct a full trial to determine veracity of documents such as Shareholders Agreements---Court must evaluate totality of material, including primary and secondary evidence, where particularly in the context of secondary evidence the documents are reasonably credible, without strict insistence on original proof and reach a conclusion accordingly.
