This judgment in the centre: on the left the decisions it cites, on the right the decisions citing it. Colour is the treatment; choose a decision to open it.
1. The petitioner came to be detained by an order passed by the Commissioner of Police, Ahmedabad city, Ahmedabad, dated 24th February 1999 in exercise of powers u/s 3[1] of the Gujarat Prevention of Anti Social Activities Act, 1985 [hereinafter referred to as `the PASA Act' for short] on the ground that the petitioner is a bootlegger. That his activities have resulted into disruption of public order and the detention under the PASA Act is the only remedy which can be resorted to immediately preventing the petitioner from pursuing his illegal and anti social activities.
2. The petitioner has approached this Court with the petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India challenging the order of detention on various grounds.
3. Heard Ms. Kachhwah, learned advocate for the petitioner and Mr. H.H.Patel, learned AGP for respondents.
4. Mr. Patel, at the outset, submitted that the order of detention has been revoked by the State Government on 16th April 1999. The petition has therefore become infructuous and the same deserves to be dismissed.
5. Accordingly, the petition is dismissed as having become infructuous. Rule discharged. No costs.
