ORAL ORDER

In this petition, the petitioner seeks quashing of the impugned externment order at Annexure-A dated 03.04.2024 passed by respondent No.2 under Section 55 of the Karnataka Police Act, 1963 (for short “the K.P. Act”).

2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned AGA for the respondents and perused the material on record.

3. In addition to reiterating the various contentions urged in the memorandum of petition and referring to the material on record,

learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the impugned order

passed by the 2nd respondent directing externment of the petitioner is not only contrary to the provisions and procedure prescribed / contained in Sections 55 to 58 of the K.P.Act, but also against the principles governing externment as enunciated by the Apex Court in the case of Deepak vs. State of Maharashtra - 2022 SCC OnLine SC 99 which has been followed by this Court in the case of Giddappa Vs. Lambu Giddappa Vs. State of Karnataka and others - W.P.No.8182/2023 dated 21.04.2023 and in the case of Shakeeb @ Mohammed Shakeebullah vs. State of Karnataka & others - W.P.No.14426/2023 -3-

dated 28.11.2023. It is therefore submitted that the impugned order

passed by the respondents deserve to be quashed.

4. Per contra, learned AGA for the respondents would support the impugned order and submits that there is no merit in the petition and the same is liable to be dismissed.

5. As rightly contended by the learned counsel for the petitioner, a perusal of the material on record including the impugned

order will clearly indicate that the 2nd respondent has failed to follow the

mandatory requirements and procedure prescribed under Sections 55 to 58 of the Karnataka Police Act, while passing the impugned order, which is clearly contrary to the principles enunciated by the Apex Court and this Court in the judgments referred to supra. Under these circumstances, I am of the view that the impugned order passed by the 2nd respondent at Annexure-A dated 03.04.2024 deserves to be quashed.

6. In the result, I pass the following:

ORDER

(i) Petition is hereby allowed.

(ii) The impugned order dated 03.04.2024 at Annexure - A passed by the 2nd respondent is hereby quashed. Sd/- (S.R.KRISHNA KUMAR) JUDGE BMC; List No.: 5 Sl No.: 11
