We are not impressed with the analogy as put forward by him for the reasons that departmental action against the petitioner having been initiated during his service independently of a criminal case registered against him. Merely obtaining an acquittal order in a criminal case would not nullify the departmental proceedings at this stage after his retirement. Since PSB-I did not consider his case for promotion and in the meanwhile, he stood retired from service, no benefit of Rule 7-A of The Sindh Civil Servants (Appointment, Promotion and Transfer) Rules, 1974, could be given to him after he retired from service in the year 2017--Dismissed
