Union Of India And Others vs Major A. Hussain, Ic- 14827 on 8 December, 1997

11. Proceedings of Court of Inquiry are not admissible in evidence as per Rule 182 of the Army Rules. As noticed above, Court of Inquiry was not convened against the petitioners. It was convened to look into the allegations made in the complaint directed against superior officer of the petitioners. In those proceedings opportunity was afforded to the said superior officer. There was no occasion in those proceedings to afford an opportunity to any one else much less the petitioners, who were complainants and were examined as witnesses. As convening of Court of Inquiry is not sine qua non for initiating proceedings against the petitioners and when Court of Inquiry was not convened against the petitioners, submissions made on behalf of the petitioners have no force. The petitioners admittedly have been served with relevant copies as required under law and charges will now be heard against them in accordance with the procedure laid down in Rule 22 with full opportunity to them to cross examine the witnesses against them and to call such witnesses and make such statement, as may be necessary, for their defense. We do not find any force in these petitions, which are hereby dismissed.
