Commissioner of Police v. Preetpal Singh
Case brief
What is this about?
This judgment sets aside a Tribunal order that completely exonerated respondents from proved charges. The court held that since the respondents accepted the earlier Appellate Authority order through counsel, the Tribunal's exoneration is vitiated. The Appellate Authority order is deemed final.
What did the court decide?
The Tribunal order of exoneration dated 6 November 2006 is set aside to treat the Appellate Authority's penalty order dated 16 November 2004 as final.
