In the aforesaid order this Court had directed the respondent authorities to issue necessary communication to the petitioner for his physical verification and scrutiny of his testimonies and thereafter to consider him for appointment on the post of Police Constable in B.M.P. 9, Jamalpur in accordance with law.

The further stand is that no person having a height of less than 180.9 cm has been appointed on the post of Constable and the petitioner’s height being less than the same he was also not considered fit for appointment in view of the relevant instructions dated 16.3.2002 issued by the Police Headquarters. 2 In view of the aforesaid facts, this Court does not find that any wilful disobedience has been committed by the authorities of the order dated 11.2.2004 under contempt.
