Code are not effectively checked and dealt with, more and more
people would get attracted to the "business". It is a source for
making easy money. There must be effective mechanism to punish
the offenders under Section 489 B of the Indian Penal Code without
any delay. I think top priority must be given to the disposal of cases
under Sections 489A, 489-B, 489C and 489D of the Indian Penal
Code. The investigating agency should also take care to complete
the investigation expeditiously. A casual approach in the matter of
granting bail in such cases would act as an encouragement to the
offenders to indulge in similar offences again and again. Exercise of
discretion under Section 437 and 439 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure, in the matter of granting bail in such cases, should be
with great care and caution. Letting loose persons who were found
indulged in the offence under Section 489 B and who were caught
red handed, would give a wrong message to the offenders.
