Sheo Baran Singh Vs. Emperor

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-31-1933

Reported in: AIR1933All533

Bennet, J.1. This is an appeal by one Sheo Baran Singh who has been sentenced to death under Section 302, I.P.C., for the murder of one Mt. Gangola on 18th October 1932 and there is a reference before us for confirmation of that sentence. The facts are very simple and it is shown by the prosecution witnesses that the accused had the deceased as his mistress for about 11 years, with the connivance of her husband Baldeo Singh, who died about a year ago. The accused was a partner with Baldeo Singh in the cultivation of about 50 or 60 bighas of land and after the death of Baldeo Singh in Asarh the son of Baldeo Singh Sheoraj who had attained the age of 20 years, told the accused that he should no longer be a partner and partnership terminated.

Mt. Inoyia Vs. Harbans Prasad and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-30-1933

Reported in: AIR1933All482a

Kendall, J.1. This application for revision arises from a case in which certain persons were prosecuted under Sections 147 and 304, Penal Code, and the Magistrate after a prolonged inquiry discharged them on 22nd August 1932 without framing a charge. An application for the revision of his order was made to the Sessions Judge, some of whose remarks in his order probably inspired the present application, which is made by the mother of the man who died as a result of injuries received in the course of a riot. A further point for remark is that the application to this Court was made about four months after the Sessions Judge's order, refusing to interfere in revision, had been passed. The remarks made by the Sessions Judge to which I have referred are as follows:The main contention of the applicant is that the learned Magistrate has usurped the functions of the Sessions Court as the case was exclusively triable by the Court of Sessions and that his judgment clearly indicates this. I may at...

Secy. of State Vs. Madhuri Das-naraIn Das

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-30-1933

Reported in: AIR1933All477

Niamatullah, J.1. This is an application in revision by Secretary of State for India in Council against a decree passed by the Judge of the Small Cause Court at Allahabad in a suit brought by a plaintiff opposite-party for damages arising out of late delivery of a consignment sent by G.I.P. Railway from Lalitpur to Naini. The consignment was under risk note B, which implies that in consideration of payment of a lower freight the railway company is relieved of its responsibilities as bailee to a certain extent. The circumstances leading to the institution of the suit which has given rise to this application in revision are briefly as follows:The consignment in question arrived at its destination, Naini, on 19th August 1931. The name of the consignee entered in the railway receipt was that of the firm Madhuri Das Narain Das, the plaintiff opposite-party. The railway receipt described the relative consignment as No. 23, which implied that the consignment also bore the same number, so that...

Reported in: AIR1934All385

ORDERMukerji, J.1. These are two Civil Revisions arising out of the same civil proceedings, viz., suit No. 52 of 1930 in the Court of the Subordinate Judge at Cawnpore.

Lachhman Das Babu Ram Vs. Commissioner of Income-tax

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-29-1933

Reported in: AIR1933All853

Mukerji, J.1. This is a very short matter and is concluded by a decision of this Court in Radhey Lal Balmukand : AIR1931All23 . In an income-tax matter decided on 9th July 1929, this Court awarded to the assessee his costs against the opposite party. The costs would naturally include the amount of Rs. 100 deposited as fee for a reference under Sub-section (2), Section 66, Income-tax Act, The High Court office in preparing the memorandum of costs omitted to include this sum. The applicant now asks that this sum should be included.2. Mr. Verma has argued three points against the application. One is that this virtually asks us to review our judgment. Secondly, it is not open to the High Court to deal with the fee paid for reference, and thirdly, that the application is a belated one. On the first point we do not think that it is an application for review of judgment. When we awarded costs to the assessee we awarded all the costs without any exception, and if, as was rightly held in the ca...

Court: Allahabad

Kendall, J.1. This application arises from a suit in which the Judge of the Small Cause Court of Ghazipur dismissed the plaintiff's claim. The defendant is said to have borrowed Rupees 300 from the plaintiff's father in 1926 and executed a 'sarkhat,' but he is said to have paid this amount on 21st July 1929, and on the following day he borrowed a further sum of Rs. 250 adding a note of memorandum on the old document. This note or memorandum formed the basis of the plaintiff's suit, but it was not stamped,, and the Court held that it required a stamp of one anna and was not 1933 admissible in evidence as 'it was an acknowledgment.' The decision of the learned Judge has been assailed from two points of view. It is said in the first place that the document is either a receipt, in which case it might have been admitted in evidence on payment of a penalty, or else a mere memorandum on which no stamp was necessary. The document in question reads as follows:Dastkhat Ramtapesa Singh: do sou pa...
