The judgment of the Karnataka High Court records the following account. Armed Police Constable of CAR (South), Bengaluru remained unauthorisedly absent from 2 August 2004, admitting 192 days absence before the enquiry officer. The Deputy Commissioner of Police imposed compulsory retirement in June 2005 considering his earlier record of absence in 18 years of service, and the appellate, revisional and KAT orders affirmed the penalty. The Division Bench held the disciplinary authority was justified in imposing compulsory retirement, calling it a lenient view, and found the 192-day absence from an essential service astonishing. Recording concurrent findings of fact, the Court held the penalty not disproportionate and dismissed the writ petition as devoid of merit. Matters not addressed in the cited judgment text are not recorded here.
