Petitioner: M/s. UNITED BANK LIMITED, KARACHI and 2 others VS Respondent: MUHAMMAD ISHAQUE MEMON
Court Name: Labour Appellate Tribunal Judge(s): Agha Ali Hyder Title:M/s. UNITED BANK LIMITED, KARACHI and 2 others vs MUHAMMAD ISHAQUE
MEMON Case No.: Appeal No, HYD-84 of 1992 Date of Judgment:1994-10-20 Reported As: 1995 PLC 97 Result: Appeal dismissed Judgment DECISION ' The respondent was appointed as a Grade-III Officer vide letter dated 28-9-1989 for a period of six months. It appears that on the completion of the basic training he was appointed on a regular assignment per order dated 26th of June, 1990. It was thereafter that his services came to be terminated on the 10th of January, 1991 on the ground that the same was no longer required. 2. The petition was resisted on a number of grounds but the contentions came to be repelled and he was ordered to be reinstated in service with full back benefits culminating in this appeal. 3. It is an axiomatic principle of law that the services of a permanent employee, as the respondent had become, could not be terminated on a ground as indicated in the order. There is enough case-law on the subject. The order of termination is absolutely inequitable and unjust and was properly vacated. ' In the result the appeal stands dismissed.
