Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Jun-16-1988

Reported in: 1989CriLJ765; (1988)2GLR1404

ORDERM.B. Shah, J.1. The only question which requires determination in this revision application is whether the Superintendent, Central Excise, who has investigated the case is required to file complaint or submit charge-sheet before the Magistrate for the offences alleged to have been committed by the petitioner-accused under the provisions of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, hereinafter referred to as 'the Act'.2. Learned Counsel Mr. Barot submitted that under Section 53 of the Act the powers of an officer in charge of a police station for investigation of the offences under the Act are given to the Central Excise Officers, the customs officers and other officers. Therefore, respondent No. 1 is required to submit charge-sheet after completion of the investigation and he cannot file private complaint before the learned Magistrate.

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Jun-16-1988

Reported in: (1988)2GLR1244

G.T. Nanavati, J.1. These two appeals arise out of the judgment and order passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Baroda in Criminal Appeal No. 89 of 1980 whereby he acquitted the present respondent-original accused. The respondent-accused had filed the said appeal against the order of conviction and sentence passed by the learned Judicial Magistrate, First Class (Municipal), Baroda in Criminal Case No. 5387 of 1979. Criminal Appeal No. 520 of 1981 is filed by the State against the order of acquittal passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge; whereas Criminal Appeal No. 943 of 1981 is filed by the Food Inspector who is the original complainant, against the said order of acquittal. As both these appeals arise out of the same judgment, they were heard together; and are disposed of by this common judgment.2. On 10-5-1979 at about 8-30 a.m. Food Inspector Manubhai Maganlal Pandya visited the shop of the accused. At that time the accused was present in his shop. In the front ...

Brijlal Ambaram Rana Vs. Commissioner of Police and anr.

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Jun-15-1988

Reported in: (1988)2GLR1239

J.P. Desai, J.1. The petitioner is detained by an order dated 23-12-1987 Annexure 'A', by the Commissioner of Police, Surat City under Sub-section (2) of Section 3 of the Gujarat Prevention of Anti-Social Activities Act, 1985. The order of detention is challenged on several grounds. We do not propose to go into all the grounds of challenge because one of the grounds of challenge has appealed to us. That ground of challenge is that copies of several documents were supplied to the detenu but two documents (pages 49 fo 56 of the compilation) were supplied to the detenu in English and the detenu did not understand English language. The ground of challenge is that Gujarati translation of these documents ought to have been supplied to the detenu so as to enable him to make an effective representation against the order of detention. The ground of challenge further is that because the translation was not supplied, the detenu could not make effective representation and, therefore, the detention...
