Greeva-
Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh High Court overturned the suspension of Civil Judge Imtiyaz Ahmad Lone, who was suspended last year following a complaint filed by the Uri Bar Association.
The suspension has been revoked on ‘humanitarian grounds,’ owing to Lone’s serious health problems. From the day of his reinstatement, he will be paid his full salary.
He has been posted to the High Court’s Srinagar Wing as a Leave Reserve Civil Judge (Senior Judge).
An official order was made public, which stated:
“The Hon’ble Full Court, after taking into account the serious ailment of Shri Imtiyaz Ahmed Lone, the then Civil Judge (Senior Division) Sub-Judge, Uri and purely on humanitarian ground, has been pleased to revoke the suspension order of the officer.”
His suspension decision was taken at a Full Court resolution passed after a complaint was lodged against him by the Bar Association, Uri.
