Roop Bansal vs Union Of India And Another on 31 October, 2023

26. To arrive at this conclusion, the Hon'ble Apex Court noted that the mode of conveying information of the grounds of arrest must necessarily be meaningful so as to serve the intended purpose. Reference was made to Section 45 of the PMLA which enables the arrested person to seek release on bail. It was noticed that Section 45 prescribes twin conditions which are required to be satisfied in the absence of which, the arrested person would not be entitled to bail. The Hon'ble Apex Court held that to meet the requirement of Section 45 of the PMLA, it would be essential for the arrested person to be aware of the grounds of arrest and the basis for the officer's 'reason to believe' that the arrested person was guilty of offence punishable under the PMLA. Only if the arrested person has knowledge of these facts that he/she would be in a position to plead and prove before the 55 of 60 ::: Downloaded on - 01-11-2023 01:56:25 ::: Neutral Citation No:=2023:PHHC:138899-DB CWP-23005-2023 56 Special Court that there are grounds to believe that he/she is not guilty of such offence, so as to avail the relief of bail. It was held that the communication of the grounds of arrest, as mandated by Article 22 (1) of the Constitution and Section 19 of the PMLA, is, therefore, meant to serve this higher purpose and must be given due importance. The Hon'ble Apex Court also held that the decision of the Delhi High Court in the case of Moin Akhtar Qureshi Versus Union of India and others 2017 SCC Online Del 12108; WP (Crl.) No.2465 of 2017, decided on 01.12.2017 and that of the Bombay High Court in the case of Chhagan Chandrakant Bhujbal vs. Union of India and others 2017 (1) AIR Bom R (Cri) 929 which took a contrary view do not lay down the correct law.

Virbhadra Singh & Anr vs Enforcement Directorate & Anr on 3 July, 2017

127. As in the cases of Karam Singh (supra) and Chhagan Chandrakant Bhujbal (supra), brought before the Punjab & Haryana High Court and Bombay High Court respectively, substantial focus of arguments of the petitioners here was to bring home that the general procedural law, as contained in the Code of Criminal Procedure, and the authoritative pronouncements of the Supreme Court and various High Courts prescribe safeguards against the misuse of authority by the agencies investigating crimes, particularly in the context of possibility of abuse vis-a-vis the power of arrest and interrogation having a bearing on the fundamental rights of freedom and rule against self-incrimination. It was submitted that the procedure must be regulated according to the classification under which the PMLA offences would fall, the investigation being impermissible in absence of registration of an FIR if the nature of the crimes is taken as cognizable, such conclusion obliging the investigating agency to abide by the requirements of Chapter XII of Cr. P.C. Conversely, it was urged that if the offences are non-cognizable, the investigating agency WP(C) 856/2016 & connected matters Page 86 of 101 must take prior approval from the court (the Magistrate) before commencing the probe or exercising the power of arrest.

Moin Akhtar Qureshi vs Uoi & Ors. on 1 December, 2017

68. The decision of the Division Bench of the Bombay High Court in Chhagan Chandrakant Bhujbal (supra) and that of the learned Single Judge of the same Court in Sunil Chainani (supra) appeal to us and we find ourselves in complete agreement with the reasoning adopted by the learned Judges in those decisions. The expression "communicate to such person the grounds on which the order has been made ... ... ..." used in Article 22(5) has to be interpreted in the context of the purpose for which the said obligation is cast on the State. The communication of the grounds of preventive detention is to afford to the detenue the earliest opportunity of making an effective representation against the order of detention. Unlike in the case of an arrest referable to Article 22(1), when a person is preventively detained under Article 22(5), there is no obligation on the State to produce the detenue before the nearest Magistrate within 24 hours of detention. The law does not mandate the obtainment of the sanction of the Magistrate, or any other judicial authority for continued detention of the detenue beyond the period of 24 hours. The only immediate right available to the detenue is to make a representation against his preventive detention. To be able to effectively exercise that right, it is imperative that the detenue is communicated the grounds on which the order of detention has been made in writing, in a language that he understands, so that he is able to make his W.P.(CRL) 2465/2017 Page 55 of 71 representation effectively.

Shareholders Association Of Financial ... vs The Union Of India And 2 Ors on 4 December, 2017

20] Mr. Mookherjee and Mr. Dwarkadas submit that mere public interest is not sufficient and the Central Government must be satisfied that it is essential in national interest to compulsorily amalgamate two or more companies in order to exercise the draconian powers under Section 396. They submit that the national interest is different and distinct from mere public interest and since, the Central Government, in making the impugned order, has not even adverted to the aspect of national interest, the impugned order, is vitiated and liable to be struck down. They rely mainly on the legislative history, the statement of objects and reasons to the Bill which preceded the Constitution (Fourth Amendment) Act, 1955 and the Companies (Amendment) Bill 1959. They also make reference to Notes on Clauses mainly to submit that amendment to substitute the expression national interest with public interest in Section 396, was an amendment of merely "drafting nature". They rely on Uttam Das vs. Shiromani Gurdwara Prabhandak Committee, Amritsar20, Chagan Bhujbal vs. Union of India21, Wood Polymer Limited vs. Bengal Hotels Pvt. Ltd.22 and Union of India vs. Ambalal Sarabhai Enterprises Ltd.23, in support of their submissions.
