Mr.R.Devaraj\n^For Respondent  ... Mr.R.M.Anbunithi\n\t\t     Government Advocate (Crl. Side)\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n* * * * *\n\n:ORDER\n<\/pre>\n<p>\tThis petition has been filed to quash the complaint in C.C.No.799 of 2009<br \/>\non the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate, Pudukkottai.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t2. The long and short of the facts absolutely necessary and germane for<br \/>\nthe disposal of this petition would run thus:\n<\/p>\n<p>\tThe Drug Inspector filed the complaint before the learned Judicial<br \/>\nMagistrate, Pudukkottai, on 13.07.2009, who after taking cognizance issued<br \/>\nsummons to the accused whereupon, they entered appearance and also filed the<br \/>\ndischarge application which was dismissed.  Subsequently, this petition has been<br \/>\nfiled impugning and challenging the legality and maintainability of the<br \/>\ncomplaint itself and to quash the same.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t3. Heard both sides.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t4. Indubitably and indisputably, incontrovertibly and unassailably, the<br \/>\nfacts absolutely necessary for the disposal of this petition would run thus:<br \/>\n\tThe Drug Inspector took the sample of drug namely Enalapril Maleate<br \/>\nTablets, from the Tamilnadu Medical Services Corporation Ltd., at Sipcot, Trichy<br \/>\nRoad, Pudukkottai, on 24.07.2007 as per Rules and sent to the Tamil Nadu Drugs<br \/>\nTesting Laboratory and the Drugs Inspector obtained the Analyst&#8217;s report dated<br \/>\n27.02.2009 and communicated it to the accused, which was received by them on<br \/>\n08.04.2009.  The accused sent a reply dated 05.05.2009 to the Drugs Inspector<br \/>\ndisputing the correctness of the analysis conducted and sought for retesting.<br \/>\nSubsequently, the complaint was lodged by the Drugs Inspector on 13.07.2009.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t5. The learned Counsel for the petitioners would put forth and set forth<br \/>\nhis arguments which could be succinctly and precisely set out thus:<br \/>\n\tAs per Section 25 (3) of the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940, within twenty<br \/>\neight days from the date of receipt of the copy of the Analyst&#8217;s report, the<br \/>\naccused should notify the Drugs Inspector or the Court before which any<br \/>\nproceedings are pending in respect of the said sample to the effect that the<br \/>\naccused intends to adduce evidence in controversion of the report.  The accused<br \/>\nhas also got the right to petition the Court after the complaint was filed so as<br \/>\nto get it retested and the Court also has got power under sub-section (4) of<br \/>\nSection 23 of the Act, to suo motu order for retesting by the Central Drugs<br \/>\nLaboratory if not already tested by the said Laboratory.  The complainant has<br \/>\nalso got the right to request the Court to send it to the Central Drugs<br \/>\nLaboratory for retesting.  But, in this case, retesting was not done.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t6. Whereas the learned Government Advocate (Criminal Side) would submit<br \/>\nthat the accused has not sought for retesting by petitioning the Court<br \/>\nconcerned, for which the learned Counsel for the petitioners would rely on the<br \/>\ndecision of the Honourable Apex Court in Medicamen Biotech Limited and another<br \/>\nv. Rubina Bose, Durg Inspector reported in (2008) 7 Supreme Court Cases 196.  An<br \/>\nexcerpt from it, would run thus:\n<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;16. It is, therefore, evident that the appellant had not once but on at<br \/>\nleast two occasions and within 28 days of the receipt of the show-cause notice<br \/>\nclarified that it intended to adduce evidence to show that the test report of<br \/>\nthe Government Analyst was not correct. The judgments cited by the learned<br \/>\ncounsel for the respondent, therefore, do not apply to the facts of the case as<br \/>\nthey were given in the context where the dealer\/manufacturer had not expressed<br \/>\nits desire to challenge the veracity of the report of the Drugs Analyst.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t17. In Brij Lal Mittal case  (1998) 5 SCC 343 : 1998 SCC (Cri) 1315, this<br \/>\nCourt held that a person could not claim that the fourth sample should be sent<br \/>\nto the Central Drugs Laboratory unless the requirements of sub-section (3) of<br \/>\nSection 25 was complied with. In that case, despite the service of the copies of<br \/>\nthe Analyst&#8217;s report the manufacturer had not informed the Inspector within the<br \/>\nprescribed period that he intended to adduce evidence to controvert the report.<br \/>\nIt was held in Brij Lal Mittal case: (SCC p.\t346, para 5)<br \/>\n&#8220;5. From a bare perusal of sub-section (3) it is manifest that the report of the<br \/>\nGovernment Analyst shall be evidence of the facts stated therein and such<br \/>\nevidence shall be conclusive unless the person from whom the sample was taken or<br \/>\nthe person whose name, address or other particulars have been disclosed under<br \/>\nSection 18-A (in this case the manufacturers) has within 28 days of the receipt<br \/>\nof the report notified in writing the Inspector or the court before which any<br \/>\nproceedings in respect of the sample are pending that he intends to adduce<br \/>\nevidence in controversion of the report. Sub-section (4) also makes it<br \/>\nabundantly clear that the right to get the sample tested by the Central<br \/>\nGovernment Laboratory (so as to make its report override the report of the<br \/>\nAnalyst) through the court accrues to a person accused in the case only if he<br \/>\nhad earlier notified in accordance with sub-section (3) his intention of<br \/>\nadducing evidence in controversion of the report of the Government Analyst. To<br \/>\nput it differently, unless requirement of sub-section (3) is complied with by<br \/>\nthe person concerned he cannot avail of his right under sub-section (4).&#8221;<br \/>\n\t(emphasis in original)\n<\/p>\n<p>\t18. In Unique Farmaid case (1999) 8 SCC 190 : 1999 SCC (Cri) 1404 which<br \/>\nwas a case under the Insecticides Act which has provisions analogous to Section<br \/>\n25(4) of the Act, the Court found that the accused had indeed made a request to<br \/>\nthe Inspector for sending the sample for retesting within the prescribed time-<br \/>\nlimit and as this request had not been accepted an important right given to an<br \/>\naccused had been rendered ineffective on which the proceedings could be quashed.<br \/>\nThis is what the Court had to say: (SCC p. \t197, paras 12-13)<br \/>\n\t&#8220;12. It cannot be gainsaid, therefore, that the respondents in these<br \/>\nappeals have been deprived of their valuable right to have the sample tested<br \/>\nfrom the Central Insecticides Laboratory under sub-section (4) of Section 24 of<br \/>\nthe Act. Under sub-section (3) of Section 24 report signed by the Insecticide<br \/>\nAnalyst shall be evidence of the facts stated therein and shall be conclusive<br \/>\nevidence against the accused only if the accused do not, within 28 days of the<br \/>\nreceipt of the report, notify in writing to the Insecticides Inspector or the<br \/>\ncourt before which proceedings are pending that they intend to adduce evidence<br \/>\nto controvert the report. In the present cases the Insecticides Inspector was<br \/>\nnotified that the accused intended to adduce evidence to controvert the report.<br \/>\nBy the time the matter reached the court, the shelf life of the sample had<br \/>\nalready expired and no purpose would have been served informing the court of<br \/>\nsuch an intention. The report of the Insecticide Analyst was, therefore, not<br \/>\nconclusive. A valuable right had been conferred on the accused to have the<br \/>\nsample tested from the Central Insecticides Laboratory and in the circumstances<br \/>\nof the case the accused have been deprived of that right, thus, prejudicing them<br \/>\nin their defence.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t13. In these circumstances, the High Court was right in concluding that it<br \/>\nwill be an abuse of process of court if the prosecution is continued against the<br \/>\nrespondents, the accused persons. The High Court rightly quashed the criminal<br \/>\ncomplaint. We uphold the order of the High Court and would dismiss the appeals.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>We find that this judgment helps the case of the appellant rather than that of<br \/>\nthe respondent because in spite of two communications from the appellant that it<br \/>\nintended to adduce evidence to controvert the facts given in the report of the<br \/>\nGovernment Analyst, the fourth sample with the Magistrate had not been sent for<br \/>\nreanalysis. The observations in Amery Pharmaceuticals case (2001) 4 SCC 382 :<br \/>\n2001 SCC (Cri) 724 are also to the same effect. We find that the aforesaid<br \/>\ninterpretation supports the case of the appellants inasmuch they had been<br \/>\ndeprived of the right to have the fourth sample tested from the Central Drugs<br \/>\nLaboratory. It is also clear that the complaint had been filed on 2-7-2002 which<br \/>\nis about a month short of the expiry date of the drug and as such had the<br \/>\nappellant-accused appeared before the Magistrate even on 2-7-2002 it would have<br \/>\nbeen well-nigh impossible to get the sample tested before its expiry.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t19. In the affidavit filed to the petition by Dr. D. Rao, Deputy Drugs<br \/>\nController, and in arguments before us, it has been repeatedly stressed that the<br \/>\ndelay in sending of the sample to the Central Drugs Laboratory had occurred as<br \/>\nthe appellant had avoided service of summons on it till 9-5-2005. This is<br \/>\nbegging the question. We find that there is no explanation as to why the<br \/>\ncomplaint itself had been filed about a month before the expiry of the shelf<br \/>\nlife of the drug and concededly the filing of the complaint had nothing to do<br \/>\nwith the appearance of the accused in response to the notices which were to be<br \/>\nissued by the Court after the complaint had been filed. Likewise, we observe<br \/>\nthat the requests for retesting of the drug had been made by the appellant in<br \/>\nAugust\/September 2001 as would be clear from the facts already given above and<br \/>\nthere is absolutely no reason as to why the complaint could not have been filed<br \/>\nearlier and the fourth sample sent for retesting well within time. We are,<br \/>\ntherefore, of the opinion that the facts of the case suggest that the appellants<br \/>\nhave been deprived of a valuable right under Sections 25(3) and 25(4) of the Act<br \/>\nwhich must necessitate the quashing of the proceedings against them.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t7. Placing reliance on the aforesaid decision, the learned Counsel for the<br \/>\npetitioners would correctly point out that the shelf-life of the drug concerned<br \/>\nexpired by 30.06.2009, whereas the complaint itself was lodged by the Drug<br \/>\nInspector only on 13.07.2009; in such a case, the valuable right of the accused<br \/>\nto get retested the drug got frustrated. Accordingly, he prays for quashment.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t8. The learned Government Advocate (Criminal Side) would submit that<br \/>\nsanctioning process took some time.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t9. Be that as it may, the law is strict in this regard as highlighted by<br \/>\nthe Honourable Apex Court in the cited decision supra, I would like to reproduce<br \/>\nhereunder sub-sections (3) and (4) of Section 25 of the Act:<br \/>\n\t&#8220;25.(3). Any document purporting to be a report signed by a Government<br \/>\nAnalyst under this Chapter shall be evidence of the facts stated therein, and<br \/>\nsuch evidence shall be conclusive unless the person from whom the sample was<br \/>\ntaken (or the person whose name, address and other particulars have been<br \/>\ndisclosed under Section 18-A) has, within twenty-eight days of the receipt of a<br \/>\ncopy of the report, notified in writing the Inspector or the Court before which<br \/>\nany proceedings in respect of the sample are pending that he intends to adduce<br \/>\nevidence in controversion of the report.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t(4) Unless the sample has already been tested or analysed in the Central<br \/>\nDrugs Laboratory, where a person has under sub-section (3) notified his<br \/>\nintention of adducing evidence in controversion of a Government Analyst&#8217;s<br \/>\nreport, the Court may, of its own motion or in its discretion at the request<br \/>\neither of the complainant or the accused, cause the sample of the drug (or<br \/>\ncosmetic) produced before the Magistrate under sub-section (4) of Section 23 to<br \/>\nbe sent for test or analysis to the said Laboratory, which shall make the test<br \/>\nor analysis and report in writing signed by, or under the authority of, the<br \/>\nDirector of the Central Drugs Laboratory the result thereof, and such report<br \/>\nshall be conclusive evidence of the facts stated therein.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t10. A cumulative reading of the aforesaid provisions coupled with the<br \/>\ndecision of the Honourable Apex Court in Medicamen Biotech Limited and another<br \/>\nv. Rubina Bose, Durg Inspector reported in (2008) 7 Supreme Court Cases 196,<br \/>\nwould unambiguously and unequivocally make the point pellucidly and palpably<br \/>\nclear that well before the expiry of the shelf-life of the drug concerned, the<br \/>\ncomplaint should be filed, then only the accused also could get the drug<br \/>\nconcerned retested by the Central Drugs Laboratory concerned.  But, in this<br \/>\ncase, that test was conducted only by the Tamil Nadu Drugs Testing Laboratory<br \/>\nand not by the Central Drugs Laboratory.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t11. Hence, it is quite clear that the valuable right of the accused got<br \/>\ndefeated and in such a case, there is no other go but to quash the complaint.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t12. In the result, this Criminal Original Petition is allowed and the<br \/>\ncomplaint in C.C.No.799 of 2009 on the file of the learned Judicial Magistrate,<br \/>\nPudukkottai, is quashed. Consequently, the connected Miscellaneous Petitions are<br \/>\nclosed.\n<\/p>\n<p>rsb<\/p>\n<p>To<\/p>\n<p>1.The Drugs Inspector,<br \/>\n  Pudukkottai Range,<br \/>\n  Office of the Drugs Inspector,<br \/>\n  1093, Kannadhasan Salai,<br \/>\n  Rajagopalapuram Post,<br \/>\n  Pudukkottai &#8211; 622 003.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.The Additional Public Prosecutor,<br \/>\n  Madurai Bench of Madras High Court,<br \/>\n  Madurai.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.The Judicial Magistrate, Pudukkottai.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Madras High Court M\/S.Unicure (India) Pvt.
