Muhammad Baber VS Ex-Officio Justice of Peace Ss. 22-a & 22-B---Constitution of Pakistan, art. 199--- Registration of second criminal case--- Misuse of process of law--- Petitioner was a renowned cricketer of international fame and was aggrieved of order passed by Ex-officio Justice of Peace directing police authorities to register criminal case against him on the allegation of extending life threats to respondent / complainant--- Proceedings were initiated by respondent / complainant after High Court had suspended earlier order to register criminal case---Held: Conduct of respondent / complainant demonstrated her relentless attempt to bring petitioner within the fold of criminal proceedings by all possible means--- Such conduct of respondent / complainant cast serious doubts upon bona fides of accusation as criminal process was employed not only for vindication of justice but to somehow entangle the petitioner--- High Court set aside order passed by Ex-officio Justice of Peace as the earlier order had also been set aside--- Constitutional petition was allowed accordingly.
