Bombay Borstal Schools Act, 1929, (Maharashtra) Section 6

Title: Court May Pass Order for Detention in a Borstal School

State: Maharashtra

Year: 1929

.....Borstal Schools Act, viz., 'an offence for which he is liable to be sentenced to transportation' clearly indicates that the emphasis is not on the factum of punishment but the emphasis is on the 'liability' to be sentenced. Section 6 of the Bombay Borstal Schools Act uses the expression 'liable' with reference to the maximum sentence provided for the offence. In the cases where the maximum sentence provided for the offence is either transportation or imprisonment, etc., then alone section 6 of the Bombay Borstal Schools Act, can apply to such a case. The word 'liable' is normally interpreted to mean, exposed to a certain contingency or causality. In other words, it means a future possibility, probability, happening which may or may not actually occur. It deals with the liability and not with the actual order as to sentence. Normally an offence is described for which a death penalty is provided for, is not covered by section 6 of the Bombay Borstal Schools Act, 1929.- Nago Atmaramji v. State of Maharashtra, 1977 Mah. L.
