Sale Deed Cancellation Case

Summary

A sale deed from 1993 is being challenged in Islamabad. Under Pakistani law, the statute of limitations for challenging a sale deed is generally three years from the knowledge of fraud. A power of attorney can be questioned in court, and if proven fraudulent, all transactions under it become null and void. The burden of proof lies with the person making the allegations. If the principal didnt own the land at the time of the attorney, the agent couldnt legally sell it, making the sale potentially voidable.
