Decision Date Jun 03, 1982
Hearing Date
Decision The appeal filed by Khadim Hussain against the order rejecting his representation for expunction of adverse remarks was dismissed. The Tribunal found that the adverse remarks were supported by specific instances and justified by the Reporting Officer. The appellant's performance during the relevant period was deemed unsatisfactory, leading to the conclusion that the remarks were appropriate and should remain in his Character Roll. Consequently, the decision of the Inspector-General of Police was upheld, and no costs were awarded.
Summary The case revolves around Khadim Hussain's appeal to the Service Tribunal regarding adverse remarks in his Annual Confidential Report (A.C.R) during his tenure as Inspector of Police in Telecommunications. The Tribunal assessed the arguments presented by both the appellant's counsel and the District Attorney representing the respondents. It was determined that the appellant's performance was evaluated as 'below average' and several specific instances of inadequate duty performance were highlighted. Despite commendation certificates awarded prior to the reporting period, the Tribunal upheld the adverse remarks as justified. This outcome emphasizes the importance of accurate performance assessments in civil service and the role of service tribunals in adjudicating such disputes.
