Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the pension applicant's appeal, remanding the case for a new factual determination. The lower court granted a pension based solely on total disability and a 25-year contribution record, ignoring the specific requirement that the five-year qualifying period must fall within the last ten years prior to disability onset. The Court held that Article 58, Section 2 of the Social Insurance Fund Act establishes a strict condition linking the timing of disability to the contribution period, which the appellate court failed to verify.
