Inappropriate and undesirable if not illegal for the High Court to have determined the validity proceedings under Section491, Cr.P.C. [PLD 2004 SC 219 Petition. Habeas corpus: Analyzing the statement of procedure of court marriage in Pakistan on the touchstone of Injunctions of Islam coupled with the material available on record the Nikah in between the petitioner and Sahib Noor and decision in the writ petition wherein the matter was discussed and direction was issued to the police not to harass Sahib Noor and the fact of her marriage with Riaz was also considered.

Some of The Fact By The Divorce After Court Marriage:

The fact of divorce by AbdurRehman was also taken into consideration. There is nothing on record that said AbdurRehman even after this writ petitioner otherwise took any step to have the recovery of Sahib Noor if she had been divorced by him. AbdurRehman did not agitate the matter before any proper forum. Sahib Noor states that she is an adult and she wishes to go wherever she likes therefore this petition is disposed of with a direction that Sahib Noor is allowed to go wherever she likes. However, AbdurRehman is at liberty to avail his other remedy available to him under the law, if he so feels necessary, who alleges himself to be the husband of Sahib Noor.
