BHAGEL SINGH Vs. STATE OF PUNJAB AND OTHERS

JUDGEMENT

(1.) It is not in dispute that Ravinder Singh, the alleged detenu, has already been got released by the Warrant Officer.

(2.) It is clear from the above that when the alleged detenu was recovered by the Warrant Officer, no fine of Rs.50,000/- had been imposed upon him. The fact remains that he was required to be produced before the Assistant Excise and Taxation Officer to either pay the fine or face the criminal proceedings.
