اس مقدمے میں، عدالت نے والد کو اپنی مالی حیثیت ثابت کرنے کے لیے ثبوت مانگے اور قرار دیا کہ وہ اپنی تنخواہ کا غیر تصدیق شدہ سلیپ پیش کر کے اپنے مالی حالات ثابت کرنے میں ناکام رہا، جس کی وجہ سے عدالت نے بچوں کی دیکھ بھال کے لیے ماں کے شواہد کو تسلیم کرتے ہوئے خرچہ کی رقم مقرر کی۔
2024 CLC 1580

اس مقدمے میں، نابالغ بچوں کی دیکھ بھال کے لیے مالی مدد کا دعویٰ کیا گیا ہے۔ عدالت نے والد کی مالی حیثیت کی جانچ پڑتال کی۔ اگرچہ مدعی (ماں) والد کی تنخواہ کا سلیپ پیش نہیں کر سکی، لیکن عدالت نے والد (درخواست گزار) پر یہ ذمہ داری عائد کی کہ وہ اپنی ماہانہ تنخواہ کے متعلق قابل اعتماد دستاویزات پیش کرے۔ والد نے اپنی تنخواہ کا سلیپ پیش کیا، لیکن یہ سلیپ معیاری نہیں تھا، کیونکہ یہ کم از کم اجرت کے معیار کے مطابق نہیں تھا اور اس کی تصدیق کے لیے کوئی ثبوت موجود نہیں تھا۔

عدالت نے کہا کہ اگر والد اپنے بینک کے بیان یا کمپنی کے کسی اہلکار کو پیش کر کے اپنی تنخواہ کی تصدیق کر دیتا تو صورتحال مختلف ہوتی، مگر اس نے صرف تنخواہ کا سلیپ اور بینک اکاؤنٹ کھولنے کی دستاویز پیش کی، جو کہ ثبوت کے طور پر ناکافی ثابت ہوئی۔

لہذا، عدالت نے مدعیہ کے پیش کردہ شواہد کو تسلیم کیا، جن میں بچوں کی فوری ضروریات کا ذکر تھا، اور والد کی ذمہ داریوں کو مدنظر رکھتے ہوئے مالی مدد کی رقم مقرر کی۔ عدالت نے نیچے کی عدالتوں کے فیصلے کو برقرار رکھا، یہ کہتے ہوئے کہ درخواست گزار نے اپنے شواہد کے ذریعے کوئی مضبوط بنیاد فراہم نہیں کی۔

Maintenance allowance of the minors---Financial status of the father--- Proof---Notwithstanding the fact that the respondent (plaintiff/mother) was unable to procure and bring on record salary slip of the petitioner, he himself was obliged to bring on record reliable and trustworthy record/documents disclosing his monthly salary---Petitioner though had produced (got exhibited) in evidence his alleged salary slip, but said salary slip by no means qualified standards to attain trustworthy status for reliance on certain counts; one that it did not conform with minimum standards of wages, and second that it was a document handed out and produced by the petitioner himself, which from the face of it appeared to be a computer generated copy lacking any sort of verification on behalf of the petitioner's employer---To prove said document (salary slip), the petitioner could have easily adduced his bank statement of the salary account, transpiring exact deposits from his company on account of his salary; he could have also produced his employer or any other authorized official of the company in support of sanctity, truthfulness and genuine status of said document (salary slip)-Petitioner's employer or his authorized official, whilst appearing in witness box, could have brought on record bank and tax record to head of his salary---However, the petitioner did not do the same and only produced said two documents (salary slip and salary account opening form) for proving his salary, which attempt fells short on account of no evidentiary value attached to both said documents... Though the provisions of Qanun-e-Shahadat, 1984 are not stricto sensu applicable to family matters, but exhibited salary slip was bereft of any strength and evidentiary value---If salary slip had been an official/attested/verified document, then situation would have been different, but genuine origination and sanctity of exhibited salary slip was not of required standards for being relied upon---In the circumstances, the Courts below had no option but to believe the evidence produced by the respondent (plaintiff / mother) regarding immediate necessities of claimants of maintenance allowance and fixing up same keeping in light the petitioner's obligations as well---No ground whatsoever was available to substitute the concurrent findings of courts below.
