Freezing of bank account for unconnected entities is legally untenable.

M/s Jermyn Capital LLC Dubai v. Central Bureau of Investigation

Fact:

M/s Jermyn Capital LLC Dubai (#Appellant Company) was Permitted by Securities Exchange Board of India (#SEBI) to buy & sell share & securities in the #Indian Stock Market.

The appellant company had its shares in its account with #ICICI Bank.

However, due to certain litigation the appellant company quit the trading in the Indian Market in 2006.

But appellant company was subjected to 02 #freeze orders under section 102 #Cr PC. (This section empowers police officers to seize any property which gives suspicion for commission of any offence.)

The freeze order for an amount of Rs.42.51 crore was initiated because of the #pending #investigation against Dharmesh Doshi

Against the freeze order the appellant company approached the Apex Court & the #ApexCourt allowed the appellant Company to sell its shares & convert into cash and repatriate the funds with interest but without bank guarantee.

Rs. 42.51 Crore was repatriated.

Issue arose when appellant company was incapacitated by second freeze order for an amount of Rs. 38.52 crores to repatriate.

Aggrieved by the freeze the appellant company again approached the Apex Court.

 The Apex Court gave liberty to the appellant company to approach trial court for release of the said amount.

 The trial court allowed the repatriation of Rs.38.52 Crores subject to the #Bank Guarantee of an equivalent amount.

Aggrieved by the imposition of Bank Guarantee Clause the appellant Company approached High Court.

High Court confirmed the decision of Trial Court.

Against the order of the High Court present Criminal Appeal is filed before Apex Court.

Observation of the Apex Court:

 Imposition of Bank Guarantee clause as due to pending investigation against Dharmesh Doshi, alleged to have been connected with the appellant company.

Record shows that Dharmesh Doshi has been discharged by the trial court, was never an employee/shareholder/director or holding key managerial position in the appellant company.

Dharmesh Doshi & Appellant Company are 02 separate entities.

Freezing order as such not legally tenable when two entities are unconnected.

Neither in the FIR nor in the chargesheet filed against the Dharmesh Doshi, appellant company was named.

Further during hearing CBI informed the Apex Court that no criminal proceedings is pending against the appellant company pertaining the dispute discussed here.

The freeze order against the appellant company’s properties is redundant as the appellant company is not necessary for the conclusion of the investigation.

The purpose of the freeze order, and the bank guarantee in extension of the freeze order, can only be in operation to aid in the investigation against the alleged crime.

Since the investigation against the appellant company has become redundant as such freeze order has also become redundant.

 The operation of the freeze order has been active for a period of 17 years and has caused huge losses to the appellant company.

Decision:

The Division Bench of Hon’ble Mr. Justice Krishna Murari J & Hon’ble Sanjay Kumar J vide their order dt.09.05.2023 set aside the order of the High Court and permitted the appellant company to withdraw the said amount with 4% simple interest from May08, 2006.

CBI files chargesheet against YouTuber over allegedly forged letters in Sridevi death case

The Central Bureau of Investigation has taken legal action against a self-styled investigator, Deepti R Pinniti, accusing her of presenting "forged" letters from high di.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has taken decisive action in the Sridevi death case. The agency has filed a charge sheet against a self-proclaimed investigator who purportedly presented "forged" letters from prominent dignitaries, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, to support her claims. Officials disclosed this development on Sunday, shedding light on the agency's ongoing efforts to address the matter.

Last year, the CBI initiated a case against Deepti R Pinniti, hailing from Bhubaneswar, and her lawyer Bharath Suresh Kamath, following a complaint lodged by Mumbai-based lawyer Chandni Shah. The complaint, forwarded to the agency by the Prime Minister's Office, alleged that Pinniti had disseminated fabricated documents, including letters attributed to the Prime Minister and the Defence Minister, as well as materials purportedly sourced from the Supreme Court and the UAE government.

Pinniti, known for her active engagement in social media dialogues surrounding the deaths of Bollywood icons like Sridevi and Sushant Singh Rajput, made startling assertions regarding Sridevi's demise, including insinuations of government involvement. In one interview, she suggested a "cover-up between the two governments," drawing attention to her self-proclaimed "investigations."

Responding to inquiries from PTI, Pinniti expressed incredulity at the CBI's actions, remarking, "It's kind of hard to believe that the CBI has filed a charge sheet against me without recording my statement." She further contested the validity of the evidence, indicating a potential conflict of interest due to the CBI's affiliations. "When the letters in question are incriminating against the very authorities under whom the CBI comes, CBI becomes a party of conflict to be the entity to collect evidence," she asserted.

The CBI had previously conducted searches at Pinniti's residence in Bhubaneswar on December 2, seizing digital devices such as phones and laptops. Subsequent investigations revealed that the documents presented by Pinniti during her YouTube discussions, specifically those concerning the Prime Minister and the Defence Minister, were allegedly forged. Consequently, the agency has pressed charges against both Pinniti and Kamath under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code, including 120-B (criminal conspiracy), 465, 469, and 471.

In her complaint, Mumbai-based lawyer Shah had accused Pinniti of tarnishing the reputation of the government by baselessly implicating it in Sridevi's death.

India is known in the world as a Secular Country but see day by day the Secular fabric is tearing off. You belong to a particular faith so you are free to profess your religion, practices and faith but you can't compel people belonging to other faith to profess your religious practices.

Background

Submission of the Counsel of the State

1.     The counsel of the #State #opposed the #bail application as the statements of the girl students demonstrated that they were compelled to wear head scarf (Hijaab).

"Main Zindagi Ka Saath Nibhaata Chala Gaya

Har Fikar Ko Dhuyein Mein Udata Chala Gaya"

Remembering Bollywood's evergreen star, the inimitable Dev Anand, on his 100th birth anniversary (26/09/1923).

Dev Anand, born as Dharamdev Pishorimal Anand on 26 September 1923, was a celebrated figure in the Indian film industry. His extensive contributions as an actor, writer, director, and producer in Hindi cinema marked him as one of the most successful and respected actors in Indian film history. Over a career spanning six decades, Anand worked in over 100 films, earning numerous awards including four Filmfare Awards and the prestigious Padma Bhushan and Dadasaheb Phalke Award from the Government of India.

Anand's film journey began in 1946 with a lead role in "Hum Ek Hain," a film promoting Hindu-Muslim unity. His first hit, "Ziddi," came in 1948, followed by the superhit "Baazi" in 1951, which pioneered the influx of "Bombay Noir" films in the 1950s. His later years were marked by numerous successful films, earning him a romantic image and solidifying his place in the industry.

The 1965 film "Guide" was a significant milestone in Anand's career. Based on R. K. Narayan's novel, it was a huge success and was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 38th Academy Awards. Anand continued to star in various box office hits throughout the 70s and 80s, with "Chargesheet" in 2011 being his final film.

Anand's distinctive acting style, characterized by his fast dialogue delivery and unique nodding, became his trademark. His films often explored cultural and socially relevant topics, reflecting his worldview. Married to actress Kalpana Kartik, Anand had two children, including Suneil Anand.

Anand's charm, diverse roles, and good looks made him one of the highest-paid actors from the 1950s to the early 1970s. In 2022, he was honored in Outlook India's "75 Best Bollywood Actors" list. Known as the "first fashion icon" of Bollywood, Anand's fashion statements and style were emulated by many.

Anand's autobiography, "Romancing with Life," was released in September 2007, and his 1961 film "Hum Dono" was digitized, colorized, and re-released in February 2011. His enduring appeal and unmatched style led to numerous accolades and recognition, with many noting his flamboyant, debonair, and romantic screen presence. Despite comparisons to Hollywood actor Gregory Peck, Anand maintained his unique identity, stating, "I am Dev Anand."

Anand's meetings with Peck, initiated at Bombay's Willingdon Club in 1954, were marked by mutual respect and admiration. Despite their interactions, Anand remained a distinct and beloved figure in Indian cinema, celebrated for his timeless contributions and enduring legacy.
