    Case Summary: CWJC/17622/2021 The Patna High Court allowed the writ petitions of Bihar Police constables Shiv Balak Baitha and Shashi Bhushan Kumar, setting aside their termination orders dated 13.05.2020 along with subsequent appellate rejections. The petitioners were terminated for allegedly stealing foreign liquor from police barracks; however, the court found them similarly situated to two co-accused officers whose identical terminations had already been set aside by a coordinate bench. Consequently, the court directed reinstatement with full consequential benefits. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
