The Sindh High Court (SHC) has ruled that there is no provision in Sindh laws allowing for the blocking of Computerized National Identity Cards (CNICs) in civil cases. The court emphasized that identity should not be treated as a commodity, reinforcing the principle that individuals should not face hindrances based on their identification.
This decision highlights the court's stance on protecting citizens' rights, as it clearly stated that no legal framework supports the practice of blocking CNICs in civil disputes. The ruling aims to safeguard individuals from undue legal obstacles in asserting their rights.
