Section 509 IPC and under Section 4 of the Eve-Teasing
Act. He was acquitted in that case because of the non-

witnesses turned hostile.

Delhi Administration Through Its Chief ... vs Sushil Kumar on 4 October, 1996
18. Hon'ble Supreme Court in Delhi Administration
vs. Sushil Kumar [1996 (11) SCC 605] held that
verification of the character and antecedent is one of the
important criteria to test whether the selected candidate
is suitable for a post under the State. Though he was
found physically fit, passed the written test and
interview, provisionally selected on account of his
antecedent record and had been acquitted, the
appointing authority found it not desirable to appoint a
person of such record as a Constable to the disciplined
force. The Hon'ble Court held that though he was
discharged or acquitted of the criminal offences, the
same has nothing to with the question. What would be
relevant is the conduct or character of the candidate to
be appointed to a service and not the actual result
thereof.
