Kanu Biswas vs State Of West Bengal on 3 May, 1972
"The question whether a man has only committed a breach of
law and order or has acted in a manner likely to cause a
disturbance of the public order is a question of degree and the
extent of the reach of the act upon the society. Public order is
what the French call 'order publique' and is something more
than ordinary maintenance of law and order. The test to be
adopted in determining whether an act affects law and order or
public order, as laid down in the above case, is: Does it lead to
disturbance of the current of life of the community so as to
amount to a disturbance of the public order or does it affect
merely an individual leaving the tranquility of the society
undisturbed?"
Article 21 in Constitution of India [Constitution]
Rekha @Lekha vs State Of Tamil Nadu on 22 February, 2018
"Para 11: No doubt, the offences alleged to have been
committed by the appellant are such as to attract punishment
under the Andhra Pradesh Prohibition Act, but that in our
view has to be done under the said laws and taking recourse
to preventive detention laws would not be warranted.
Preventive detention involves detaining of a person without
trial in order to prevent him/her from committing certain
types of offences. But such detention cannot be made a
substitute for the Crl.A.67/12 ordinary law and absolve the
investigating authorities of their normal functions of
investigating crimes which the detenu may have committed.
After all, preventive detention in most cases is for a year only
and cannot be used as an instrument to keep a person in
perpetual custody without trial (emphasis supplied).
Accordingly, while following the three-Judge Bench decision in
Rekha's case (supra), we allow the appeal and set aside the
order passed by the High Court dated 20th July, 2011, and
also quash the Detention Order dated 15th February, 2011,
issue by the Collector and District Magistrate, Ranga Reddy
District, Andhra Pradesh."
