Reported in: 1953CriLJ149

ORDERAtma Charan, J.C.1. Heard the parties.2. This is a complainant's application in revision from the order of the trial Court dismissing his complaint against the accused opposite-party under Section 203, Criminal P.C.3. The case of the complainant is that the accused opposite-party obtained his motor-cycle bearing No. DLA 9705 under a false pretence and that lie then got it registered in his own name with the authorities concerned by dishonestly re-presenting to them that it had been purchased by him in some auction-sale at Delhi. The trial Court held that the dispute between the parties was of a civil nature and, as such, dismissed the complaint straightway under Section 203, Criminal P.C.

Bodu Lal Vs. State

Court: Rajasthan

Decided on: Mar-21-1952

ORDERAtma Charan, J.C.1. Heard the parties.2. The accused-applicant stands convicted Under Section 9 of Central Act I of 1878 and sentenced to undergo three months' R.I. and to pay a fine of Rs. 200/- or in default of such, to undergo further R.I. for one month.3. The first point pressed in this revision on behalf of the accused-applicant is that the prosecution has failed to prove that the article recovered was 'opium' within the meaning of Section 3 of the Act. The article recovered has been seen by me, and is certainly nothing else but spontaneously coagulated juice of capsules of the poppy. In State v. Kaptan Singh 0043/1952 : AIR1952All118 , it has been observed as below:Opium in the form of coagulated juice of poppy is so well known in this country being widely used for medicinal & other purposes that anyone can identify it and it is unnecessary to call in an expert to establish its identity. If an Excise Inspector says that certain article is crude opium his testimony cannot be ...

Manmal Saraogi Vs. the State

Court: Rajasthan

Decided on: Mar-14-1952

Reported in: 1953CriLJ48

Atma Charan, C.J.1. Heard the parties.2. The accused-applicant stands convicted under Sections 3 and 4 of the Public Gambling Act and sentenced in the aggregate to pay a fine of Rs. 200/-.3. The only point pressed at the time of arguments in revision is that as the trial Court itself had issued the search warrant the accused-applicant has been materially prejudiced and, as such, he should be acquitted. The counsel for the accused-applicant in this connection has drawn my attention to the rulings as cited in Rajaram v. Emperor AIR 1924 Lah 247 and Syam Behari v. Emperor AIR 1934 All 987 (2). The Government Advocate, on the other hand, relies on the rulings as cited in 1935 AMLJ 59 and Nemichand v. Crown 1938 AMLJ 40. The later set of the rulings clearly lays down that in such cases a Court would not be justified in raising presumptions as could have been raised in case a valid warrant had been issued. On the evidence of the parties otherwise the trial Court as well as the appellate Cour...
