Sidique vs State Of Kerala
10.On perusing Annexure-A1 order, it is evident that the
Sub Divisional Magistrate has disregarded the statutory
mandate and has invoked powers vested on him in a
callous manner . The only crime mentioned of in the order
is the one registered under Section 107 of the Code by the
Sub Inspector of Police. That could not have been taken
as the basis to issue a preventive order against the
petitioners herein. (see Santhosh M.V. and others v.
State of Kerala [2014 (3) KLT 837; Girish P and Others
v. State of Kerala [2009 (4) KHC 929]). In the absence of
any evidence rendering a breach of peace probable, a
Magistrate is not justified in calling upon parties, to show
cause why he should not enter into recognisances , and on
his failure, to make an order under the section.
