Delay in FIR makes it weak

Delay in FIR is almost vital in the sanctity of FIR. Delay in FIR makes the case of prosecution doubtful. The more the delay there is, the weaker the FIR is. Even at times there are cases in which there is only few hours delay, the case becomes weaker.

A presumption is drawn that the FIR has been lodged with malafide of the prosecution when there is delay in the lodgement of FIR. In most cases, the delay leads to confirmation of bail and later acquittal in the case.

In how much time a Family Case gets decided?

According to section 12-A of the West Pakistan Family Courts Act, 1964 a Family Case shall be decided within six months. However, there are different kinds of Family Cases and not every case is decided within six months. Most cases get decided in 3-4 months while some cases even take years at times.

Generally "Suit for Dissolution of Marriage on the grounds of Khula" and "Suit for Restitution of Conjugal Rights" is decided within 6-7 hearings which takes almost 3-4 months time. However, the cases for recovery of dowry articles, recovery of Haq Mehar (Dower Amount), Child Custody and Guardianship matters take more than a year generally.

A suit for maintenance sometimes take very less time and sometimes it takes longer time to get decided. However, a good thing about suit for maintenance is that the order for interim maintenance can be taken at initial stages of the case and the defendant is liable to submit such maintenance amount once its ordered by the court.

Filing an Affidavit with a Family Suit is not Mandatory

In a family suit, a plaint is drafted and at the end of plaint there is a verification to be signed by the plaintiff and attested by oath commission. If this verification is made part of plaint then there is no need to attach a separate affidavit for verification of oath attestation.

If there is any application filed along with the family suit then an affidavit along with that application has to be filed. That affidavit has to be attested by the oath commissioner. The reason is that every petition or application has to be filed along with an affidavit verifying the contents of that application.

In Guardianship and Custody cases affidavit is always filed because both kinds of cases initiate from petitions only. For more you can consult lawyergolra@gmail.com

Difference between Child Custody and Guardianship

Child Custody and Guardianship are two different concepts. Child Custody procedures are governed by Section 12 and 25 of the Guardians and Wards Act 1890 while Guardianship Petitions are filed under section 7 and 19 of the Guardians and Wards Act 1890.

The concept of custody deals with the physical possession of a parent over the child while Guardianship declares a person to be the guardian of property or person of minor.

Mother and Father both are natural guardians of a child. If a guardianship petition is filed by one of them against the other then it means that the court has to make one of them eligible for guardianship declaring the other ineligible for same.

Similarly if a custody petition is filed, the court has to determine the welfare of minor and in accordance with that custody can be granted to the parent applying for same or not. For more you can consult lawyergolra@gmail.com

NGO Registration Procedure in Pakistan

There are four statutes that govern the NGO registration procedures in Pakistan.

1. The Societies Registration Act 1860
2. The Trusts Act 1882
3. The Volunteer Social Welfare Agency Act 1961
4. The Companies Act 2017

Out of these four statutes ban has been imposed on first three procedures. The fourth one is now the official procedure which takes long time for registration. Similarly if a person starts complying with the requirements of the Companies Act 2017, it is not necessary that the NGO may be registered even after a year's struggle.

It seems that the Government of Pakistan is no more encouraging the process of NGO registration. Therefore the new entrants in the NGO industry almost have no scope. However, if you like to register a NGO for fair purposes then with some struggle its registration is possible. You can contact lawyergolra@gmail.com for NGO registration.

Is it mandatory to disclose assets while filing returns

The last date for filing income tax returns for the previous year has been extended to 30th April 2019. Whenever an income tax return is filed, wealth tax statement is filed along with it. It is mandatory to file wealth tax statement before filing of income tax return.

Most people fear of disclosing their personal assets or incomes in their returns. This fear is dangerous for themselves. The reason is that the Government already has the record of transactions and assets of most people in its record.

The system is centralized at the Government's end these days. From one system FBR employees can access CNIC details, FBR details, Bank Account details, foreign transaction details, NAB cases, FIA cases, SECP details and similar other details of any individual irrespective whether such person is a filer or not.

So it is best to be fair with the Government and to disclose the assets and transactions fairly to avoid any problems in future. For professional advise or for filing your returns you can contact lawyergolra@gmail.com
