Petitioner: DISTRICT MANAGER, KTC, KARACHI VS Respondent: MUKHTAR AHMAD and another
Court Name: Labour Appellate Tribunal Judge(s): Ahmed Ali U. Qureshi Title: DISTRICT MANAGER, KTC, KARACHI vs MUKHTAR AHMAD and another Case No.: Appeal No, KAR-276 of 1989 Date of Judgment:1989-08-03 Reported As: 1990 PLC 44 Result: Appeal dismissed
Judgment DECISION This is an appeal against the order of learned Presiding Officer, Sind Labour Court No,1, Karachi, dated 15-4-1989, whereby grievance application of the respondent was allowed and he was ordered to be reinstated without back benefits. 2. The respondent was removed from service, after due enquiry on the charge that he had taken 10 male passengers and 10 girl students in the bus and realised fare from them without issuing them tickets. The learned Labour Court has formed the opinion that there was no sufficient evidence proving this charge as none of the person:: from whom fare is alleged to have been charged by the respondent without issuing tickets has been examined either before the Enquiry Officer or before the Labour Court. This Tribunal has consistently held in number of cases that without such evidence this charge cannot be considered to have been proved to warrant removal of service of the alleged defaulter. 3. In view of above position I find no merits in this appeal which is dismissed in limine.
