ORDER1. At the stage of consideration of the petition learned Additional State Public Prosecutor raised preliminary objection regarding maintainability of the present petition. He contended that the petitioner has already approached the Sessions Court, Gulbarga, in a petition, Criminal Miscellaneous No. 265 of 2001, filed under Section 438 of the Cr. P.C. apprehending her arrest in Criminal Nos. 16 and 17 of 2001 and as the same is pending adjudication, present petition is not at all maintainable.

Reported in: ILR2001KAR3652; 2001(4)KarLJ369

ORDER1. While granting interim custody of a vehicle seized under Section 62 of the Karnataka Forest Act, 1963 ('Act' for short), the Authorised Officer, among other conditions, imposed the condition that the respondent-RC holder of the vehicle concerned should furnish bank guarantee to the extent of Rs. 1,90,000/-. In appeal by the respondent, the learned Sessions Judge has, however, set aside this condition. The State has now come up in revision.2. It is to be remembered that in this revision petition, State is not aggrieved by the order of return of vehicle by way of interim custody as such. It is only with regard to doing away with the condition relating to giving of bank guarantee, the revision petitioners, i.e., the Range Forest Officer as well as the Authorised Officer have come up in appeal. In State of Karnataka v K. Krishnan , the Supreme Court said thus.-'We are of the considered view that when any vehicle is seized on the allegation that it was used for committing a forest o...

1. These writ appeals arise out of common judgment rendered by the learned Single Judge in Writ Petition No. 21977 of 1999, etc. The appellants herein who are the writ petitioners claim to have purchased the sites in dispute from the landholder one Sri C. Ramu (who is not a party in the writ petitions) in the year 1981 by means of registered deeds of sale executed on plain paper under which possession has been purportedly delivered to them. It is also their case that pursuant to the sale deeds, they were put in possession and the entire sale consideration was paid to the said landholder.

Atmjit Singh Vs. Commissioner of Income-tax

Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Jun-04-2001

Reported in: (2001)169CTR(Kar)219; ILR2001KAR4833; [2001]252ITR233(KAR); [2001]252ITR233(Karn)

P.V. Reddi, C.J.1. We see no legal infirmity in the order passed by the learned single judge (see : [2001]247ITR356(KAR) ) holding that in view of non-compliance of Section 67(1) of the Voluntary Disclosure of Income Scheme, 1997, the declaration filed by the writ petitioner shall be deemed to be non est under the Scheme by virtue of the explicit declaration contained in Sub-section (2) of Section 67. The appellant ought to have paid the tax with interest on or before March 27, 1998. But, she paid the tax with interest only on March 31, 1998. As observed by the learned single judge, when the language in Sub-sections (1) and (2) is specific and clear, it is not possible to give any benefit to the appellant by overlooking the delay of three days. If such benefit is given to the appellant, it amounts to departing from the terms of the Scheme which does not contemplate condonation of delay by embarking on an enquiry whether there was sufficient cause or not for the belated payment or for b...
