EMPEROR Vs. WAZIR AHMAD

Decided On March 17, 1902
EMPEROR Appellant
V/S
WAZIR AHMAD Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE order for payment of so much fine per day so long us the building continues to stand is illegal. THE addition of such an order is premature. THEre must be proof of a continuing offence before the jurisdiction of a Magistrate to make such an order arises. That portion, therefore, of the order will be set aside. I am supported in this view by the decision of the Calcutta High Court in Ram Krishna Biswas V/s. Mohendra Nath Mozamdar (1900) I.L.R. 27 Calc. 565.
