In this way the order of punishment of only stoppage of one annual grade increment without cumulative effect was altered to
punishment of censure only.
(3.) THE facts which are not in dispute are that the petitioner was in -charge of police station Khanda Phalsa, In a raid adulterated ghee was
recovered from the factory and not from the shop. Only 2 kg of sample was
taken and rest of the ghee was not recovered inspite of the fact that
petitioner, in the capacity of the SHO of police station concerned was
present on spot. The allegation is that instead of doing investigation
himself, he got investigation from his junior officer and during this
investigation, the petitioner SHO of the police station, remained present
on the spot. Against the same factory three more cases were registered on
earlier occasion of adulteration and information about these three
earlier cases of food adulteration was not given to the court concerned.
The defence taken by the petitioner was rejected by in departmental
enquiry yet it has been held that there was no ill motive of the
petitioner.;
