In Re: Motahar Hossain

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Jan-25-1995

Reported in: II(1995)DMC278

Rabin Bhattacharyya, J. 1. The petitioner has filed an application for anticipatory bail on the ground that the offence alleged to have been committed lies beyond the jurisdiction of this Court and the allegation of cruel treatment meted out to his wife is stale. The allegations are all tainted and founded on improbabilities entitling the petitioner to be enlarged on anticipatory bail.2. The prayer for anticipatory bail has been opposed by the State on the footing that there are prima facie tangible materials against the petitioner disentitling him to an anticipatory bail.. 3. The petitioner to invigorate his claim for anticipatory bail has made twin submissions. The first of such submissions is that the complaint is not maintainable, as it is struck by the extra-territoriality, as the offence complained of did not see the light of the day, at Birbhum but at Dhanbad.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Jan-24-1995

Reported in: 1995(80)ELT788(Cal)

C.J.1. This appeal has been preferred against the judgment of the learned Single Judge dated February 2,1983 setting aside the order of the Assistant Collector of Customs, quashing the penalty of Rs. 7,695/- imposed on the respondent and directing refund of the penalty, if paid, forthwith.2. The Department has preferred this appeal against the judgment of the learned Single Judge on the ground that the Notification No. 132, dated December 14,1973 did not apply to the present case inasmuch as it applies to the case of refund and as it was not a case of refund the learned Single Judge wrongly relied on that and passed the order impugned by means of this appeal.3. We find merits in the submission of the Department and after reading the said Notification and the other relevant papers we are of the view that the Notification relied on could not be applied to the facts of the case. That being so, the imposition of penalty by the Department, could not be set aside on this ground. We also quas...
