Consumer court judge Syed Maruf Ahmed Ali on Tuesday, while accepting a complaint, directed an Engineering Equipment Company to refund the price of generator amounting Rs. 24,500 to the petitioner and Rs.5,000 as compensation.

Petitioner Abdul Hafeez Ahmed, a resident of Allama Iqbal Town, has filed a complaint for the recovery of the price of the generator. According to the complaint, the petitioner purchased a generator on August 30, 2008 from Engineering Equipment Company, 21-Nicholson Road, for Rs.24,500. He submitted that the generator did not operate on the gas from the first day. After one month the petitioner returned the generator to the respondent at his shop, but he did not refund the price of the generator.

The respondent was summoned, who contested the claim of the petitioner through his written statement. The respondent has contended that the generator had not been returned to him by the petitioner and he was not liable to refund the price of it.
