Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction by re-appreciating evidence and substituting its findings for those of the Trial Court without identifying any apparent error on the record. The Court emphasized that interference in such matters is not permissible unless the findings are perverse. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, the High Court's order was set aside, and the Trial Court's order was restored.
