Chief Justice of US Supreme Court John Marshall had once said: "Power of Judiciary lies not in deciding cases, nor in Imposing sentences nor in punishing for contempt, but in the trust, faith and confidence of the common man".

Accord Industry status to process of issuing warrants & cancelling warrants

Issuing arrest warrant and cancelling them benefits, numerous poor people who work in the courts and at the police stations... So accord it some status or else people will call it ...racket to extort ....

Accord industry status to process of Issuing warrants & cancelling warrants

Those of you, who have had the misfortune of having been forced to attend courts, must already be aware of how things function, in the god forbidden place, where everyone from top to bottom, is smiling at you, with a reason... put something in my palm.

This small story starts in 1998 when my son Sushil had acquired a driving licence at  age 18. After about 6 months, while driving a Maruti 800, his car collided with a autorickshaw. The rickshaw overturned and the car was slightly damaged... it happened about 1/2 km from our residence.

Three ladies were travelling in the autorickshaw, one of which complained that she had severe pain in the arm, so he left the car on the spot and accompanied her to the hospital, where the policeman on duty, informed Khar Police station about the accident, in their jurisdication. The lady was examined by the doctor, X ray taken, no fracture was found and she was sent home. My son was taken to the Khar Police station.

Now, as per the law my son was not to be arrested, but he was. As per the law the minor accident was to be treated (in the worst case) as a bailable offence, and should have been released on a bail of Rs 900/-, but he was held at police station from 6.30 pm till 12.30 am, because I was a person not used to offering bribes, so all their hints were not taken note of by me.

Finally, around 11.30 pm, I was compelled to use my contacts. A retired Police Commissioner of Bombay, called up the Khar Police, to enquire why Chhugani's son was being held, when the offence was a bailable one. 2 months later, my son received summons, from the Bandra court as the Khar Police had filed a case for rash and negligent driving. FOR 12 YEARS NOW, the case has not moved an inch. (My Son finally decided "Damn the Court, I am taking up the Job offer abroad" ... So he flew out on 27-1-2010 ... I will face the Magistrate who is likely to issue an arrest warrant again )

While Sushil (my son) has had to attend the court approximately 9-10 TIMES EVERY YEAR FOR 11 YEARS NOW (total about 95 times).....Funny is the hectic activity that takes place, on the date that he is unable to attend, because he is out of station and his lawyer, for some reason has forgotten too.

The activity : The police prosecutor asks for a arrest warrant to be issued, since the accused and his lawyer are not present, the magistrate promptly issues a arrest warrant, the court  back office promptly processes it and sends the warrant of arrest to Khar Police station. The Khar Police, 3-4 days later, send the police in civilian clothes to arrest my son, in the evening around 7-8 pm, they see in it an opportunity, to extort a lot of money... This has happened 3 times in the last  11 years. Unfortunately for the local cops, all 3 times I was at home, when they came,pretending to come from some bank for credit cards, Sushil has applied, the deception never worked... All 3 times, I identified them as cops... called up my Son, who on all 3 occasions was not in Bombay and he confirmed "Yes I think I had a date in Bandra court last week, busy with office work I forgot".

Now comes round two: On his return to Bombay, immediately he goes to the court, with the lawyer and gets the process started of cancelling the arrest warrant... It takes about distribution of Rs 600 to Rs 800, to various dogs at the court. By 4 or 5 pm, he has the slip in hand, confirming the cancellation of arrest warrant... Another day or two later, the cops from Khar Polie station, land up, we show them the slip, received from court about cancellation.

The cops plead with us "My Bada Saheb will think, I warned you last time and then you got the warrant cancelled...he will not believe, I did not get any money from you, because the major portion is to be given to him".

We are told this case is likely to go on for another 10-12 years, during which period, he is not supposed to take up a job outside India.

Therefore accord Industry status, to issue of arrest warrants.

The courts are clogged with pending cases, because it is in the interests of court officials and the police, to prolong so that they can keep on milking more and more people ... People do get tired of going again & again and nothing happening, so they skip sometimes & then the rogues start their efficient system of extortion.

This kind of case can happen with anyone ...even YOU.

So it is important, you should join in to fight NOW

(Reproduced from Times Of india 13th April 2008 pg 10) HC: Be careful in issuing NBWs Failure To Turn Up At Court Doesn’t Require Warrant New Delhi: The Delhi high court has advised judges to be careful in using the power of issuing non-bailable warrants and said that in cases related to bailable offences, a court must not issue a non-bailable warrant against the accused for their failure to appear during trial. Cancelling a magistrate’s NBW against two women, facing trial for alleged misuse of a property, Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul said, “The judges should exercise their jurisdiction with care in future... while a judge presides over criminal jurisdiction he should not give a misconceived heady feeling of sense of power where he seeks obedience losing sight of fundamental principles of Constitution, rights, criminal jurisprudence and fair play.” Justice Kaul’s observations came while cancelling the warrant issued against Mani Shandly and Anuradha Thakur by a metropolitan magistrate last month for their failure to appear in court on March 24.

Their counsel said they regularly attended court proceedings, but due to a confusion in dates, they appeared before the court on March 25 instead of 24. But the magistrate had rejected their submission and issued NBW against them, Singh added. TNN
