HC-NIC
C/WPPIL/191/2015
ORDER
Code. Learned advocate relied on various paragraphs and
attempted to submit that Section 144, Cr.P.C. could not be
invoked to smother the enjoyment of fundamental right. The
facts of that case were entirely different where the order was
passed under Section 144 of the Code at 11.30 p.m. and the
officers of police were shown to have unleashed lathi charge on
the persons and devotees who were sleeping at the Ramlila
Maidan. The Supreme Court found that the action of the
policemen was brutal and arbitrary. It was in that background
of fact situation that the Supreme Court did not approve
issuance of order under Section 144 of the Code.
16.
In view of the above, we do not find any case made out
for interference. Hence, the petition is dismissed.
