Judgment text as reported

Mian GUL SHAHZADA AURANGZEB VS DISTRICT COORDINATION OFFICER, SWAT Ss.8 & 42---Civil Procedure Code (V of 1908), S.115---Constitution of Pakistan, Art.172---Title dispute over property between former Ruler of Swat and Provincial Government---Present civil revision arose out of concurrent dismissal of the petitioners' suit and appeal regarding suit property---Petitioners claimed to be legal heirs of the former Ruler of Swat and sought declaration, correction of revenue entries, injunction and possession while the respondents asserted Provincial Government ownership under the settlement record---Held: It was mentioned in the relevant notification that while the buildings were owned by the State of Swat, the land beneath them was the exclusive ownership of the Rulers of Swat---Mere possession as a licensee could not be considered as a proof of ownership of the Provisional Government---Respondents were required to justify the correctness of the revenue record through independent and reliable evidence but they failed to produce any record of lawful acquisition of the suit property---Concurrent judgments of the courts below suffered from misreading and non-reading of evidence and were not sustainable in law---Suit of the petitioners was decreed as prayed for---Civil revision was allowed, in circumstances.
