Notice was actually sent to him at the right address and he received it or refused to receive

This omission was fatal. In this regard reference to the case of Bashir Ahmad v. Ghulam Rasool (2010 SCJ 643) would be appropriate wherein it was held that it was the duty of the pre-emptor to have produced the postman through whom notice was allegedly got served upon the vendee to prove that notice was actually sent to him at the right address and he received it or refused to receive it; and, that in order to establish Talb-i-Ishhad the pre-emptor has to prove that notice was sent to the vendee through registered post acknowledge due card and its acknowledgment receipt was received by the pre-emptor after its service on the vendee. This principle has been reiterated in the case of Basharat Ali Khan v. Muhammad Akbar (2017 SCMR 309).
