As the grounds<br \/>\nof detention,  one criminal case is shown registered against the<br \/>\ndetenu.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.1\tHe has<br \/>\nfurther submitted that in the order of detention it was stated that<br \/>\nthe detenu is carrying on anti-social activities and on the basis of<br \/>\nsolitary offence of &#8216;bootlegging&#8217; registered against the detenu, he<br \/>\nwas termed as &#8216;Bootlegger&#8217; within the meaning of Section 2(b)of the<br \/>\nP.A.S.A. Act.  It was also stated in the impugned order that as the<br \/>\nsaid bootlegging activities of the detenu are dangerous and affecting<br \/>\nmaintenance of &#8216;public order&#8217; and &#8216;public health&#8217;, order of detention<br \/>\nhas been passed against him.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.2\tHe<br \/>\nhas further submitted that on the basis of only one criminal case<br \/>\nregistered against the detenu, he cannot be termed as &#8216;Bootlegger&#8217;.<br \/>\nIn support of his case he has placed reliance<br \/>\non a decision of this Court passed in the case of ?SSohanlal<br \/>\nSurajram Visnoi Vs. State of Gujarat and Ors.??<br \/>\nreported in 2004(2)GLR 1051 wherein it was held as under,<\/p>\n<p>?SIt<br \/>\nmay be noted that the contention advanced on behalf of the<br \/>\npetitioners that no preventive detention order can be recorded in a<br \/>\nsolitary incident or instance or offence cannot be accepted in toto.<br \/>\n  The detaining authority can pass the order of detention even on<br \/>\nthe basis of a solitary incident or instance, provided there is<br \/>\njustifiable subjective satisfaction on objective material and<br \/>\nconsideration that such incident or offence is likely to create<br \/>\ndisturbance of ?SPublic Order??.  Emphasis is laid on ?SPublic<br \/>\nOrder?? and not on ?SLaw and Order?? which belongs to the<br \/>\nrealm of general law.  After having taken into account the statutory<br \/>\ndefinitions of the persons branded as ?Sbootlegger?? or ?Sdangerous<br \/>\nperson?? under the P.A.S.A. Act, and detailed factual matrix of each<br \/>\ncase, the solitary incident or instance in question in these<br \/>\npetitions has not been shown or spelt out from the record as<br \/>\naffecting the ?SPublic Order?? or likely to create public<br \/>\ndisturbance or prejudicial or adverse to the maintenance of ?SPublic<br \/>\nOrder??, and therefore, the continued detention of the detenus in<br \/>\neach case has not been shown to be justifiable, &#8230;??\n<\/p>\n<p>2.3\tHe<br \/>\nhas further placed reliance on a decision<br \/>\nof this Court passed in the case of ?? Sandip Omprakash Gupta<br \/>\nv. State of Gujarat &amp; Ors??\n<\/p>\n<p>reported in 2004(1)GLR 864 wherein it was held as under,<\/p>\n<p>?SThere<br \/>\nis only one registered offence under the Bombay Prohibition Act,<br \/>\nwhich obviously, cannot disturb the peace of public tempo or place of<br \/>\npublic order, and therefore, it canot be considered to be prejudicial<br \/>\nactivities in any manner which may not prompt to say, that it would<br \/>\nhave disturbed the public peace or place of public order in the<br \/>\nsociety.  The allegation against the petitioner that he is selling<br \/>\nliquor in the society, but there is nothing compelling to the persons<br \/>\nin the society to buy liquor from the petitioner.  Except this, no<br \/>\nother activity which could disturb the public peace or the public<br \/>\norder in the society is noticed or recorded against the petitioner.<br \/>\nTherefore, such activity which is said to be have been carrying out<br \/>\nby the petitioner, can normally be covered by the ordinary law to<br \/>\nprevent him and it cannot be considered beyond capacity of ordinary<br \/>\nlaw to deal with him.??\n<\/p>\n<p>2.4\tHence, he<br \/>\nhas submitted that the impugned order deserves to be quashed and set<br \/>\naside.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.\tOn the<br \/>\ncontrary,  learned A.G.P. for respondent-detaining Authority has<br \/>\nsupported the order of detention as well as grounds stated therein<br \/>\nand has contended that the Authority has passed the impugned order<br \/>\nafter taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances of<br \/>\nthe case, and hence, no case is made out calling for interference of<br \/>\nthis Court.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.\tAs a<br \/>\nresult of hearing and perusal of the record it appears that in this<br \/>\ncase the only material is one criminal case registered against the<br \/>\ndetenu and on the basis of that it cannot be said that the activity<br \/>\nof the detenu has become a threat to the maintenance of &#8216;public<br \/>\norder&#8217; and &#8216;public health&#8217;.  The offence committed by the detenu<br \/>\npertains to prohibition to which I have already made reference in my<br \/>\nearlier part of the judgment.  Mere involvement of detenu in<br \/>\nbootlegging activities may not amount to dangerous activity by<br \/>\npetitioner-detenu and mere mention of them  unless supported by any<br \/>\nevidence cannot be said to be material for the purpose of arriving at<br \/>\nsubjective satisfaction that the activity of the detenu is<br \/>\nprejudicial to the maintenance of &#8216;public order&#8217; and &#8216;public health&#8217;.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.1\t I am,<br \/>\ntherefore, of the view that the detaining authority has passed the<br \/>\norder of detention without there being any credible or cogent<br \/>\nmaterial on record in this behalf.  I have  considered factual and<br \/>\nlegal aspects emerging from the record of the petition and considered<br \/>\nthe rival submissions and the facts of the case and also considered<br \/>\nthe judgment of this Court in the case of Sohanlal<br \/>\nSujaram Visnoi (Supra) and<br \/>\nSandip Gupta(supra). In view of the facts<br \/>\nand circumstances of the present case and also ratio laid down in the<br \/>\ncases mentioned above, the order of detention cannot be sustained and<br \/>\nit deserves to be quashed and set aside.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.\tIn the<br \/>\nresult, this petition is allowed. The order of detention dated 8.9.06<br \/>\npassed by Commissioner of Police, Vadodara is hereby quashed and set<br \/>\naside.  The detenu is, therefore, ordered to be set at liberty<br \/>\nforthwith, if not required in connection with any other case by the<br \/>\nAuthority. Rule is made absolute. Direct service is permitted.\n<\/p>\n<p>(K.S.\n<\/p>\n<p>Jhaveri,J.)<\/p>\n<p>Mary\/\/<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   Top<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gujarat High Court Rameshbhai vs The on 9 November, 2011 Author: Ks Jhaveri, Gujarat High Court Case Information System Print SCA\/20594\/2006 2\/ 5 ORDER IN THE HIGH COURT OF GUJARAT AT AHMEDABAD SPECIAL CIVIL APPLICATION No. 20594 of 2006 ========================================================= RAMESHBHAI ALIAS DILIP BABUBHAI THAKORE &#8211;
