Imran Suleman Shaikh vs The State Of Maharashtra & Anr on 30 June, 2010<\/div>\n
Bench: V.M. Kanade<\/div>\n
                                   1\n\n\n          IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY\n\n\n\n\n                                                                    \n                 CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION\n\n\n\n\n                                            \n          CRIMINAL WRIT PETITION NO. 1698 OF 2010\n\n    Imran Suleman Shaikh                              ...Petitioner\n            vs.\n\n\n\n\n                                           \n    The State of Maharashtra & Anr.                   ...Respondents\n\n\n\n    Mrs.V.R.

                                         DATED : JUNE 30, 2010<\/p>\n
    P.C. :-\n<\/p>\n
    1         Heard Counsel for the petitioner and APP for<\/p>\n
    the State.\n<\/p>\n
    2         The petitioner is challenging an order of<\/p>\n
    externment dated 15th March, 2010. It is submitted<\/p>\n
    that the show cause notice which was issued by the<\/p>\n
    respondent    mentions   the       criminal     case        which         was<\/p>\n
                                            ::: Downloaded on – 09\/06\/2013 16:04:26 :::<\/span>
\n                                        2<\/span><\/p>\n
    filed against the petitioner in the year 2004 and in<\/p>\n
    which, he was convicted in the year 2006.                           Secondly,<\/p>\n
    he   refers     to    chapter      case   which           was       initiated<\/p>\n
    against   the    petitioner        in   the     year        2004.         It      is<\/p>\n
    submitted that the said cases which are mentioned<\/p>\n
    are not proximate in point of the time to the show<\/p>\n
    cause   notice       and    thereafter,     order         of      externment<\/p>\n
    which has been passed. It is submitted that one of<\/p>\n
    the requirement which has to be established by the<\/p>\n
    Externing Authority is that the Externing Authority<\/p>\n
    is to be satisfied that the petitioner is likely to<\/p>\n
    commit the said offence. It is submitted that the<\/p>\n
    Externing Authority could not have arrived at such a<\/p>\n
    conclusion particularly, when the said case which<\/p>\n
    was filed against the petitioner was not proximate<\/p>\n
    on that point of time. On this ground alone, order<\/p>\n
    of externment is liable to set aside. The learned<\/p>\n
    Counsel   relied       on    the   judgment          in     the       case        of<\/p>\n
    1987(3)   Bom.C.R.         656   reported       in      Dhondiram             Appa<\/p>\n
    Hatkar vs. The State of Maharashtra & Others.<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

    3           The    learned     APP,        on     instructions                  from<\/p>\n
    Mr.S.B. Bandgar, API of Ambarnath Police Station,<\/p>\n
    was   not    in    a   position       to   point          out       any       other<\/p>\n
    material from the show cause notice on the basis of<\/p>\n
    which it could be inferred that the petitioner was<\/p>\n
    likely to commit any such activity in future.\n<\/p>\n
    4           In    my   view,   the     ratio         of       the       judgment<\/p>\n
    Dhondiram Appa Hatkar (supra) applies to the facts<\/p>\n
    of the present case. A Division Bench of this Court<\/p>\n
    in para 5, after referring to provisions of Section<\/p>\n
    57, has observed as under ;-\n<\/p>\n
                         Therefore, it will be clear
\n                that the mere fact that the person
\n                has been convicted is not enough but<\/p>\n
                the competent authority empowered to
\n                extern the person must have reason to
\n                believe that such person is likely
\n                again   to   engage  himself  in  the
\n                commission of an offence similar to<\/p>\n
                the one for which he was convicted.
\n                It is also clear that if notice under
\n                section 59 in this behalf is to be
\n                worthwhile, then, at least, general
\n                indication in the notice has to be
\n                given   regarding   the  material  in
\n                possession of the Externing Authority<\/p>\n
                                                    ::: Downloaded on – 09\/06\/2013 16:04:26 :::<\/span>
\n                                 4<\/span><\/p>\n
               upon which his satisfaction is based.
\n               In may be that the fact that the
\n               person is persistently engaged in<\/p>\n
               certain kind of offences or has been
\n               previously convicted itself may be<\/p>\n
               the material or the ground which may
\n               enable the authority to come to the
\n               conclusion that such person is likely
\n               to   engage  himself   again   in  the<\/p>\n
               commission   of    similar   offences,
\n               obviously    depending     upon    the
\n               propensity, gravity, and magnitude of
\n               the crime and activities involved. It
\n               will all depend on the facts of each<\/p>\n
               case, and no general rule can be laid
\n               down in that behalf.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
    The Division Bench has further observed in para 6 as<\/p>\n
    under :-\n<\/p>\n
                        ….. Firstly, we find that<\/p>\n
               the first conviction is on 5th July,
\n               1980, thereafter, till 9th October,
\n               1984    there   is   not    a   single
\n               conviction. The last conviction was<\/p>\n
               on 18th May, 1985 and the notice under
\n               Section 59 was issued on 15th October,
\n               1986. In these circumstances, it is
\n               difficult to hold, that on the basis
\n               of these convictions alone, which<\/p>\n
               were not proximate, any reasonable
\n               man could have come to the conclusion
\n               that the petitioner is again likely
\n               to engage himself in the commission
\n               of similar offences. Secondly the
\n               notice under section 59 does not
\n               indicate at all any other material<\/p>\n
                                       ::: Downloaded on – 09\/06\/2013 16:04:26 :::<\/span>
\n                                        5<\/span><\/p>\n
              which could give the authority a
\n              cause to believe that the person is
\n              again likely to engage himself in<\/p>\n
              similar offences. Even the final
\n              order   of    externment does   not<\/p>\n
              disclose, even remotely, any such
\n              material. …..\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
    5         In    the    present     case       also,        unfortunately,<\/p>\n
    there is no material mentioned in the show cause<\/p>\n
    notice.   The     criminal     case      was     filed         against           the<\/p>\n
    petitioner      pertains
\n                          ig      to       year    2004.          The        chapter<\/p>\n
    proceedings were also initiated in the same year.\n<\/p>\n
    There is no material to show that the petitioner has<\/p>\n
    committed      any    such   activity         during       the       last        six<\/p>\n
    years. No NC complaint has been filed against the<\/p>\n
    present petitioner during these years and as such,<\/p>\n
    therefore, it is difficult to hold, on the basis of<\/p>\n
    the conviction of the petitioner in the year 2006<\/p>\n
    which is definitely not proximate in point of time,<\/p>\n
    that   the     petitioner     is   likely        to      commit          similar<\/p>\n
    offence again.\n<\/p>\n
    6         Under these circumstances, the petition is<\/p>\n
