…What happens elsewhere? Say, in London, under the British system of justice? Let’s take a case involving the Mians of Lahore - Shahbaz Sharif, Mohammad Sharif and Abbas Sharif - and the Hudaibiya Paper Mills Limited, who borrowed millions of dollars from Investment Funds Limited, a concern operated by Al-Tawfik Company, and in true Pakistani fashion did not repay it. Al-Tawfik went to court in London. On September 4, 1998, a master of the court, Master Rose, served an order on Hudaibiya and the Mians, who then filed an application before Justice Buckley of the Queen’s Bench Division of the High Court of Justice of England, seeking that the order and service of proceedings be set aside.
On February 5, 1999, the judge wrote a one-page order refusing the application. On March 16, 1999, the court delivered its judgement ordering the Mians to repay the loan. It was not repaid by November 5, 1999, on which date Master Trench by a one-page order had the London properties of the Mians attached. The Mians then decided to pay up and a ‘consent order’ was signed by the lawyers of the two parties on January 25, 2000. The entire matter was settled within 16 months.
