Case Law Details
Amit Bhowmik Vs State of Tripura (Tripura High Court)
Tripura High Court held that application for discharge by the petitioner duly rejectable in matter of demand of tax money in the name of an extremist group.
Facts- The petitioner contested that the trial court has rejected the application for discharge on the ground that there are sufficient materials found during investigation to proceed against them for the alleged offences but it failed to appreciate that the allegations in the chargesheet reveal that the petitioners are the victims of the instant case and cannot be chargesheeted under any of the penal provisions.
The petitioner further buttressed his submissions by relying upon the relevant contents of the charge sheet in order to submit that the petitioners were involved in construction of border roads/fencing, etc.
The materials collected during investigation reveal that petitioners No. 1 and 2 were found sitting inside the vehicle along with the Driver Suman Majumder, petitioner No.3, when they were apprehended with Rs.15,00,000/- currency notes wrapped in a paper which as per the instructions of their boss were to be handed over to the accused person, Sona Mohan Tripura @Mitrafa.
