AHMED ADAM MUGAL Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The State of Gujarat, approaches this Court with the present petition under Sec. 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, for the quashing of four criminal complaints instituted against the respondent No. 3 His Holiness Dr. Syedna Mohmmad Burhanuddin Saheb, claiming to be acting Pro-Bono-Publico.

(2.) Section 482 of the Code runs thus :-

(3.) The four private Criminal Complaints which came to be instituted against the respondent No. 3 are the sequal of what had happened at Bombay. What had happened at Bombay can best be known from the bench judgment of Bombay High Court in State of Maharashtra v. Mohammed Yusuf Noormohammed and Ors., 1990 Mah. L.J. 813. With a deep sense of gratitude I prefer to borrow the narration of the facts from the said orders.
