Combating Land Grabbing, Forged Deeds & Illegal Tenancy in Sindh

Real estate in Karachi and across Sindh represents a major store of wealth for Non-Resident Pakistanis. However, vacant plots, residential bungalows, and commercial buildings owned by overseas expatriates are prime targets for predatory criminal land grabbers (qabza mafia), collusive housing society executives, dishonest caretakers, and rogue tenants who stop paying rent and refuse to vacate.

When land grabbing occurs, traditional civil suits can sometimes suffer from procedural delays if not handled strategically. That is why our litigation team combines criminal fast-track proceedings under the Illegal Dispossession Act, 2005 before the Court of Sessions with urgent Constitutional Writ Petitions (Article 199) or High Court civil injunctions (Order 39 CPC).

Under the leadership of Senior High Court Advocates Arslan Abid Naich and Ahsan Abid Naich, we institute immediate actions that freeze property title at the Sub-Registrar level, compel police authorities to submit site inspection reports, and secure judicial execution warrants to restore physical possession to lawful overseas owners.

Critical Timelines

Limitation Period Matters

Under Section 9 of the Specific Relief Act, a summary possession suit must be filed within 6 months of dispossession. Delayed action gives grabbers legal ammunition. Act immediately upon learning of unlawful entry.
