Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel for the respondent.

2.

In the execution, the judgment debtors, who are the petitioners herein, have filed a detailed objection challenging the maintainability of the execution petition as well as the executability of the decree. It seems that the court below has passed a one sentence order without going into the merits of the contentions raised by the petitioners. When a detailed counter was filed, the court below ought to have addressed the issues involved and have dealt with the matter on merits. Therefore, Ext.P8 order passed by the

O.P.(C)1468 of 2015 -: 2 :- court below is set aside and the matter is remitted to the court below for fresh disposal, in accordance with law. The Original Petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- B.KEMAL PASHA, JUDGE ul/- [True copy] P.S. to Judge
