Despite notice, no response has been received from either the Advocate or from the Appellant themselves. We also observe that this is an old matter pending since long and has been repeatedly adjourned on 11 occasions in the past. In fact, on 26.04.2023, the adjournment was made by way of last chance but thereafter, again despite allowing adjournment due to the request from the Advocate for the Appellant, it was again adjourned.
