Judgment & Decree

NA. Bukhari for Appellant. Date of hearing: 27th January, 1992. The applicant states to have been an employee of the respondent company and had started the formation of the trade union which was not liked by the management. His services were therefore abruptly terminated. Even his application for the 'registration of the union had been refused by the Registrar.

2. It was thereafter that the application had filed a complaint before the Labour Court for the prosecution of the respondent on the ground that he was indulging in unfair labour practice.

3. The learned Labour Court had issued process and also examined witness at the preliminary enquiry proceedings. It was at this stage that an application was filed on behalf of the respondent that the complaint was liable to be dismissed as there was no relationship of employer and employee between the parties.

4. Apart from the respondent, another person by the name of Yousuf was examined. None of these 2 persons had any documentary evidence in support of the assertions that they were employees of the company.

5. In the circumstances there would have been no point in drawing the regular proceedings. The Labour Court rightly dismissed the complaint and no interference is called for. I will therefore, dismiss the Revision application summarily. H.B.T./2016/Lb.S Revision dismissed.
