The Tribunal found that the termination of the appellants' services was illegal due to the lack of evidence supporting the allegations of 'subversive activities' and 'anti-social activities'. The Tribunal highlighted that the appellants were not given any notice or opportunity to respond to the allegations against them, which is a violation of the Sind Civil Servants (Efficiency and Discipline) Rules, 1973. The appeals were allowed, and the appellants were deemed to be on duty from the date of their suspension, entitled to all service benefits. |
