Under Pakistan law, a husband can potentially be held liable for an action in breach of trust committed by his wife, depending on the specific circumstances and the nature of the breach. It is important to note that legal liability is determined on a case-by-case basis, taking into account various factors and the specific laws applicable to the situation.
In general, the liability of an individual in a breach of trust situation is determined by their level of involvement, knowledge, and responsibility in relation to the breach. If it can be proven that the husband was actively involved in or had knowledge of his wife’s breach of trust, he may be held liable.
However, it is important to understand that liability in breach of trust cases is typically determined based on the individual’s own actions, knowledge, and role in the specific situation. The liability is not automatically transferred to the husband simply because of the marital relationship.
