BY THE COURT:
The core issue, which requires judicial scrutiny in this petition, is whether "honourable acquittal" of an individual for an offence attributed to him can be insisted by the employer to facilitate his appointment after due selection and what are the legal attributes of the term "honourable acquittal"?
Character of someone is vital for adjudging his suitability for the job. Louis Nizer has rightly summed up the "character" in these lines:
"There is no substitute for character and there is no room about where you find it."
