The court further observed ” the claimant has said he has paid money to lawyer while he himself has fought the case in all the courts. The court does not decide merely on the basis of saying. This way any one can say anything. Justice Mushir Alam while addressing the petitioner on one occasion said ” please take rest in this age. Serve the people. After your death your heirs will pounce upon the money like crows and cheels. The petitioner Rasool Bakhsh took the plea high court and supreme court gave decision in his favour in the case of land. I fought the case for 32 years. The decision was given in my favour. I have persuaded the case for 32 years. I incurred heavy expenses. The court while rejecting the damage claim has wrapped up the case.
