Additional Senior Civil Judge NK Malhotra refused to allow Naved Yaar Khan to sell his sister’s property, dismissing his plea to lift the December 16 interim order of a civil court, restraining him from disposing it of. In the pleas, the heirs had alleged that Naved Yar had obtained the thumb impression of Rubina to sell her share of property.
