In Brief
The appellant, an Assistant Teacher appointed on probation in 1999, had his services terminated orally in 2004 after the school management changed. The School Tribunal reinstated him with continuity and back wages. The High Court reversed this, finding the appellant could not produce the original recruitment advertisement. The Supreme Court restored the Tribunal's order, holding that a tribunal's finding about recruitment procedure cannot be set aside merely because the advertisement document was not produced. The appellant was reinstated but denied back wages.
