From the grounds of detention, it is seen that<\/p>\n<p>on   17.04.2007  at  06.00  Hours,  the  detenue  was  found<\/p>\n<p>transporting 500 numbers of 50 ml. duplicate Karnataka  I.D.<\/p>\n<p>Arrack  Sachets  carrying in a plastic  gunny  bag  and  the<\/p>\n<p>Inspector  of  Police  attached to  Prohibition  Enforcement<\/p>\n<p>Wing,   Madhavaram  Unit,  arrested  her  and   seized   the<\/p>\n<p>contraband  and  registered  a  case  against  her  in   PEW<\/p>\n<p>Madhavaram Unit Crime No.45 of 2007 under Sections  4(1)(i),<\/p>\n<p>4(1)(aaa) read with 4(1-A) Transport TNP Act.  The  chemical<\/p>\n<p>examination  revealed that the arrack was found  to  contain<\/p>\n<p>8.1%  of  atropine,  a poisonous substance.   The  Detaining<\/p>\n<p>Authority, taking note of six adverse cases pending  against<\/p>\n<p>the   detenue  and  considering  her  incessant  activities,<\/p>\n<p>prejudicial to the maintenance of public health, clamped the<\/p>\n<p>detention order on her.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      3.  Learned  counsel for the petitioner  submits  that<\/p>\n<p>even  prior to registration of the case, in the Arrest Memo,<\/p>\n<p>crime  Number  has been assigned, which would  only  suggest<\/p>\n<p>that  by  foisting a false case and relying on  the  adverse<\/p>\n<p>cases, the detention order has been unjustly clamped on  the<\/p>\n<p>detenue.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      4.  We have carefully examined the materials available<\/p>\n<p>before us with reference to the ground raised by the learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel  for  the  petitioner.   In the Arrest  Memo,  which<\/p>\n<p>finds  place at page No.72 of the Paper Book,  Crime  Number<\/p>\n<p>has  been assigned as No.45\/2007, indicating that arrest has<\/p>\n<p>been  effected  on 17.4.2007 at 6.30 Hours; however,  F.I.R.<\/p>\n<p>has  been prepared only at 11.30 Hours.  As rightly  pointed<\/p>\n<p>out by the counsel appearing for the petitioner, inasmuch as<\/p>\n<p>Crime  Number  will  come  into existence  at  the  time  of<\/p>\n<p>registration  of  the case, mentioning of the  same  in  the<\/p>\n<p>earlier  document ie., Arrest Memo, would  give  rise  to  a<\/p>\n<p>positive  presumption that a false case has been foisted  on<\/p>\n<p>the  detenue. When the detenue\/accused was arrested at 06:30<\/p>\n<p>Hours  and only after taking her to the police station,  the<\/p>\n<p>case  might  have been registered under various Sections  of<\/p>\n<p>the  Prohibition  Act,  it  is  not  clear  as  to  how  the<\/p>\n<p>Sponsoring Authority has mentioned the Crime Number  in  the<\/p>\n<p>earlier  document  ie., Arrest Memo, while apprehending  the<\/p>\n<p>accused\/detenue.  Further, there is no explanation from  the<\/p>\n<p>concerned  authority as to how the Crime Number came  to  be<\/p>\n<p>noted  in the Arrest Memo well prior to registration of  the<\/p>\n<p>case. In the absence of valid explanation in respect of  the<\/p>\n<p>above aspect, we are of the view that the impugned order  of<\/p>\n<p>detention  is  liable to be quashed on the  ground  of  non-<\/p>\n<p>application of mind on the part of the Detaining Authority.<\/p>\n<p>      5.  Accordingly, the Habeas Corpus Petition is allowed<\/p>\n<p>and  the  order of detention passed by the second respondent<\/p>\n<p>in  the proceedings dated 07.05.2007  against the detenue is<\/p>\n<p>quashed the and the detenue is directed to be set at liberty<\/p>\n<p>forthwith  from custody unless she is required in connection<\/p>\n<p>with any other case or cause.\n<\/p>\n<p>JI.\n<\/p>\n<p>To<\/p>\n<p>1.  \tThe Secretary to Govt.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tProhibition &amp; Excise Department<br \/>\n     \tSecretariat<br \/>\n\tChennai 600 009.\n<\/p>\n<p>2. \tThe Commissioner of Police<br \/>\n\tGreater Chennai<br \/>\n     \tEgmore<br \/>\n\tChennai 600 008.\n<\/p>\n<p>3. \tThe Public Prosecutor<br \/>\n\tHigh Court<br \/>\n\tMadras.\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Madras High Court Selva Rani vs The Secretary To The Government on 23 October, 2007 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MADRAS Dated: 23.10.2007 Coram: The Hon&#8217;ble Mr. Justice P.D.DINAKARAN and The Hon&#8217;ble Mr. Justice R.REGUPATHI Habeas Corpus Petition No.992 of 2007 Selva Rani &#8230;Petitioner Vs. 1.
