R.Ravichandran vs The Additional Commissioner Of Police on 5 October, 2010
Per contra, applying the judgment of the Apex Court in Allahabad Bank and Anr. v. Deepak Kumar Bhola reported in (1997) I LLJ 854 SC, this Court, at Paragraph 6 of the judgment in Dange's case, held that,
6. Coming to the facts of the present case, the petitioner is admittedly facing criminal charges not only under the provisions of Indian Penal Code but also under the provisions of Prevention of Corruption Act and the same is not in dispute. Though detailed arguments were made on the basis of the seriousness of the charges, I do not propose to traverse the same as any discussion or finding on merit will adversely affect the rights of both the petitioner and the respondents. Suffice for me to take into consideration of the fact that the petitioner as of now is facing criminal charges of corruption.
