ORDER

' ALI HUSSAIN QAZILBASH, J.--This is a petition for leave to appeal against the judgment of the Federal Service Tribunal, dated 8-1-1986.

2. The petitioner at the relevant time was serving as Director (Accounts) under the WAPDA. Certain allegations were levelled against him and he was required to explain his conduct. His reply was considered by the Committee constituted to probe into the affairs and ultimately his removal from service under section 17(1-A) of the WAPDA Act was ordered. His appeal before the Tribunal partly succeeded to the extent that the order of his removal was set aside and instead he was retired from service.

3. We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and have gone through the order of the Tribunal. After considering the arguments of the learned counsel for the petitioner in the light of the finding of the Tribunal we are of the view that the same is unexceptionable in that the petitioner was admittedly negligent in handling the accounts of the Department and that he also failed to have proper control over the budgetary provisions of the Dapartment.

4. Thus finding no force in the petition, the same is dismissed. revisions by the competent authorities. Therefore, it is advisable to consult the official sources or legal professionals for the most up-to-date and accurate information.
