SC issues order in case of girl seeking ‘Pakistan’ as her surname


Web Desk On Sep 13, 2018

ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court on Thursday, while hearing a case of a teenage girl who sought emancipation from her father, directed the man to pay expenses he owed to his daughter.

The girl, identified as Tatheer Fatima, had filed a petition and requested Chief Justice of Pakistan Saqib Nisar, to remove her father’s name from her birth certificate and all of her educational degrees and other documents.


]
Tatheer wanted her last name removed and changed to ‘Tatheer Fatima bint-e-Pakistan’ instead.

“The name of the man, who does not deserve to be called a father, who does not provide for me, who I haven’t even met since childhood, should not be associated with mine,” the girl had said in her petition.

The chief justice upon hearing the petitioner’s case had ordered the director-general of the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) to present the girl’s father in the court.

In today’s hearing, the chief justice directed the father to pay the financial expenses he owed to her. “You will have to remedy this,” the top judge told her father, “The expenses for all the years that have passed will be recovered from you…” he added.

During the proceedings, the top court also told the girl that there was no law permitting the axing of a father’s name from a child’s.

The petitioner’s mother who was also present asked the court, “Parents are allowed to and can disown their children, so why can’t the children disown their parents?”

After the court directions, the girl’s father told the CJP that he was a poor man. In response, the CJ asked the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to probe his financial records to determine whether this was true. The FIA DG was directed by the court to closely examine the case.

“If you are poor, you will face the civil case and go to jail,” the CJP responded.

She said that the children should be given the right to decide on retaining the name of the person who actually raised them.

She reiterated her request to the court to allow her father’s name to be removed from all government documents

Pretty sure there isn't a law banning this either.

The court should make its decision on what they believe is constitutionally acceptable, and nothing less.

true but the full story should first be checked like if its a family problem can it be solved etc

Really don't like this dramaybaz CJP.

Rather than listening to cases that get him media attention, how about trying to solve the huge backlog of common cases that have been pending in courts for years?

All he is doing is making a name for himself and hoping to start a political career in the future of to be appointed a Governor or President. Pathetic!

That's not the courts problem, the court's only job is to give a legal conclusion, not act as family psychiatrists.

mey to ye soch raha hu itna mamuli case supreme court takk pohancha kesay?
The court's job is to hear any case that hasn't reached a settlement in lower courts, no matter how small it might be.

It's called first come first serve. The supreme court only hears cases that come to it, it will not interfere with cases that are still being fought in lower courts.

The biggest reason of backlog is coordination between institutions

That's the government's problem, not the court's. Only the government can eradicate poverty.

Also, why are you calling her vile? She wants her name to represent her nationality, because she clearly loves her country, isn't that patriotic?

A woman who curses her own father is a vile woman.

She was Not born in a socialist society nor in a country where childcare legislation exist.

This woman is literally wasting Everyones Time.
 
.
No court or child chooses who is or is not the biological father. Unless She has evidence that this person may not be her actual biological father. Either way it is waste of court time.
