To get the desire relief the complainant has to prove his case by sufficient documents and evidence.
In the present case complainant filed some documents at the time of filing of this case. We did not get any chance to compare those documents with the original documents because the complainant not yet turn up along with original documents. Moreover complainant did not file any evidence in the form of affidavit –in –chief in support of his case coroborating the allegation which he mentioned in the petition of complaint. Accordingly, we find that complainant has failed to establish his grievance by sufficient documents and evidence.
In the result the present case fails.
Hence
it is ordered,
that the present case is dismissed exparte without any order as to cost.
Let a plain copy of this order be given to the parties free of cost as per CPR, 2005.
