Muhammad Salman----------Vs---------- Mr. Muhammad Yaseen & others

APPLICATION UNDER ORDER 1 RULE 10 (2) C.P.C. FOR STRIKING


OUT THE DEFENDANT NO. 2 TO 6

Respectfully Sheweth:

1. That the titled suit is pending before this Honourable Court for
today i.e. 11.08.2023.

2. That the titled suit has been filed by the plaintiff under order
XXXVII of the code of civil procedure, 1908 for recovery of
Rs.15.000 million/- (rupees fifteen million) against the defendants
as they failed to fulfil their legal obligations to payback the lawful
debt plus the interest amount thereon as per the said Agreement.

3. That in order to discharge liability, finally the Defendant No.1


issued one Post Dated Cheque bearing No. CA 24398649 dated
30.06.2022, for a sum of Rs. 15.000 million drawn on NIB Bank,
Kamoki Brach, Punjab in favour of the Plaintiff received on
24.05.2022.

4. That the Plaintiff presented the said Cheque for encashment


through his Banker i.e. Meezan Bank, New Challi Branch but the
said cheque had been dishonoured by the banker with the reason
“ACCOUNT NOT FOUND/NOT PERTAIN TO US/ACCOUNT
CLOSED” which was intimated to the Plaintiff by way of return
memo dated 10.08.2022.

5. That the cheating was intention of the Defendant No.1 and his
accomplices other Defendants No.2 to 6 to wrongfully gain the
money from the Plaintiff thus causing loss to him have therefore
committed criminal offences as defined and suggested in the PPC,
1860 including u/s 420 PPC.
6. That the applicants humbly seek indulgence of this Honourable
Court for allowing struck of the defendants 2 to 6 in the titled suit
inter-alia on the following:

GROUNDS

A. The Defendant No.1 is a “necessary party” whereas the Defendants


No. 2 to 6 are “proper party” in the above titled suit whose presence
would enable the court to completely, effectively and adequately
adjudicate upon all matters in dispute in the suit, though they are
not persons against whom the order is to be made.

B. That the Plaintiff has not intentionally arrayed the defendants No. 2
to 6 as necessary party as wrongly conceived.

C. That the defendants No. 2 to 6 in association with Defendant No. 1


have committed criminal offences as suggest and defined under the
enabling section of the PPC, 1860 thus fall under different
jurisdiction and forum.

D. That the Plaintiff’s application for struck out the Defendants No. 2
to 6 be allowed from the array of parties under Order I Rule 10(2)
of the CPC, as it was manifestly erroneous. The Order 1 Rule 10
( 2) of CPC is reproduced as under:-

“10 (2) Court may strike out or add parties -The Court may at any
stage of the proceedings, either upon or without the application of
either party, and on such terms as may appear to the Court to be just,
order that the name of any party improperly joined, whether as
Plaintiff or Defendant, be struck out, and that the name, of any
person who ought to have been joined, whether as Plaintiff or
Defendant, or whose presence before the Court may be necessary in
order to enable the Court effectually and completely to adjudicate
upon and settle all the questions involved in the suit, be added.”

E. That applicant may be allowed to raise additional grounds at the


stage of arguments.

PRAYER
In aforementioned circumstances, it is humbly prayed that:-

1. The defendants No. 2 to 6 may be struck out as necessary party in


the titled suit.

2. The Hon’ble Court may graciously pass the order against the
Defendant No. 1 who is the necessary part directing to pay the
amount as double to the amount covered under the said
dishonored cheque, under the enabling provisions of the
Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881.

This application is submitted in the interest of justice.
