'Baseless litigations waste court's time'

Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa on Monday remarked that the baseless litigation used to waste courts' time and lead to an increase in the number of pending cases.

He passed these remarks during a hearing of a case regarding the distribution of property.

The top judge noted that litigation was initiated over a property dispute following the death of the 75-year-old owner.

He questioned why a 75-year-old man would gift his land to people other than his two sons.

Unfortunately, such baseless cases are wasting court's time and increasing the pending cases, he said. The court dismissed an appeal regarding the dispute of the land.
