Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Armed Forces Tribunal's decision to dismiss four appellants from service for fraudulent enrollment based on false relationship certificates. The Court found that the appellants failed to prove they applied as general category candidates, as they were found to have submitted fraudulent documents. The judgment reinforces the principle that fraudulent means in recruitment can lead to termination of service under the relevant military regulations.
