P.K. Bahri, J. (1) The order of eviction dated November 11, 1986 passed by Shri M.L. Mehta, Additional Rent Controller, Delhi, on the ground of bonafide requirement of accommodation for the landlady and her family members covered by clause (e) of sub-section (1) of Section 14 of the Delhi Rent Control Act, has been challenged by the tenant in this civil revision.(2) Counsel for the petitioner has challenged the eviction order in arguments only on two grounds, firstly, that the finding of the Additional Rent Controller that the landlady is not in possession of reasonably suitable residential accommodation is perverse and is liable to be set aside and secondly, that the landlady was guilty of suppressio veri inasmuch as she did not disclose the whole of the accommodation in her possession either in the pleadings or in the map filed Along with the petition and thus, as the landlady has not come to the Court with clean bands, her claim for bonafide requirement was liable to be negatived on...

Ashok Kumar Jaggi Vs. Union of India and ors.

Court: Delhi

Decided on: Apr-18-1988

Reported in: 1989CriLJ539; 1988(2)Crimes11; 35(1988)DLT151

Malik, J. (1) The petitioner was detained pursuant to an order dated 31st January 1987 passed under section 3(1) of the Conservation of Foreign Exchange and Prevention of Smuggling Activities Act, 1974 (as amended) by Shri K. Viswanathan, Joint Secretary to the Government of India. The detention order was passed with a view to preventing the petitioner from smuggling goods. This followed an incident dated 9th April 1987 when some foreign made gold bars were recovered from the possession of the petitioner which were smuggled by him into the country.(2) The detention order is being challenged on a number of grounds but it is not necessary for me to go into the merits or otherwise of all the grounds as the petition, in my view, will have to be allowed for one important reason. It would appear that the main object to pass a detention order as detailed in the detention order itself is to prevent the petitioner from indulging in smuggling. Mr. Arora, learned counsel for the petitioner, urges...
