Judgment text as reported

Muhammad Muneeb Arshad VS Mst. Ammara Mahroof R. 6---Family dispute---Parties residing abroad---Jurisdiction of Family Court---Scope---Determining factors---Territorial competence of a Family Court is not determined solely by the current physical residence of the parties abroad; it is determined by the statutory framework, principally Rule 6 of the Family Courts Rules, 1965---Merely because the parties presently reside abroad does not, by itself, render the Family Courts in Pakistan incompetent to entertain a family dispute---Jurisdiction of the Family Court is governed by the statutory framework, which contemplates jurisdiction through recognized connecting factors, including, inter alia, the ordinary residence, last residence, and/or where the cause of action wholly or partly arose, as applicable---The objection that the Courts in Pakistan are barred from adjudication simply because both parties are within the territorial jurisdiction of a foreign court is legally unsustainable.
