JUDGMENT/FINAL ORDER
This is a complaint under Section 12 of the C.P. Act, 1986.

After maturity the complainant demanded refund of the total maturity amount of Rs. 73,269/- from the O.Ps . But the O.Ps failed and neglected to refund the amount. Hence the complainant filed this case praying for payment of Rs. 73,269/- along with interest, cost and compensation.
The O.Ps contested the case by filing written version. The O.Ps stated that they are unable to make the payment since there is an embargo order passed by the Hon’ble Supreme Court. They also stated that the complainant did not produce original certificate and other documents for internal process for disbursement of payment. The O.Ps submitted that the case was not maintainable and prayed for dismissal of the case. The O.Ps did not file any evidence-in-chief in support of their W.V
The Ld. Advocate for the complainant by filing written notes of argument submitted that the O.Ps failed and neglected to pay the maturity value of the certificates amounting to Rs. 73,269/- in spite of repeated demands and requests. He prayed for decree as per prayers made in the complaint.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and the evidence of the complainant and the documents filed it is found that the complainant has proved the case that she had deposited the amount of Rs. 63,000/- in five certificates Nos. 925004173358, 925004173359, 925004173360, 925004173281, 925004173282 but after maturity of the service the O.Ps failed and neglected to repay the maturity value of Rs. 73,269/-. The complainant has proved her case by evidence on oath and the O.Ps did not controvert the evidence and in absence any evidence to the contrary as is held it is failed that the complainant has established her case and the complainant is entitled to get decree as prayed for.
