State Of Haryana vs Ranbir Alias Rana on 5 April, 2006

In State of Haryana v. Ranbir,87 a Division Bench of the Apex Court was confronted with an observation made in Namdi Francis Nwazor v. Union of India and Anr.88 as to whether incriminating material found in a bag being carried amounted to a „search‟ mandating compliance of S.50 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act. In Namdi Francis Nwazor88 it was observed that "if that person is carrying a handbag or the like and the incriminating article is found therefrom, it would still be a search of the person of the accused requiring compliance with Section 50 of the Act."89 The Division Bench in Ranbir87 held the same to be an orbitur as the facts before the 86 (2001) 6 A LD 747: (2001) 6 A LT 539, paragraphs 37 - 43 87 (2006) 5 SCC 167 88 (1998) 8 SCC 534 89 Id., parag raph 3 CS (OS) 3195/2012 Page 63 of 95 Court in Namdi Francis Nwazor88 did not warrant such observations as the bag in question therein was not being carried but had already been checked in and the accused was later called back for the search (paragraph 11). The Division Bench went on to hold it was not necessary for the Bench in Namdi Francis Nwazor88 to make any further observation and therefore, the view being unnecessary was a mere orbitur.
