True Colors of a Vile Wife

Month: June 2019

Rajani Kanta Padhi Vs State of Orissa and Others on 02 July 2010

Posted on June 30, 2019 by ShadesOfKnife

Based on Arun Vyas judgment from Apex Court, High Court of Orissa held as,

From Para 8,

There is no dispute over the proposition that offence under  Section 498-A of the I.P.C. is a continuing offence. The victim would have a new starting point of limitation on each occasion on which she was subjected to cruelty. Period of limitation has, therefore, to be computed from the last act of cruelty committed against the victim. In this context, decision in Arun Vyas and another v. Anita Vyas (supra) may be referred to. Section 498-A of the I.P.C. provides that a person for commission of offence thereunder shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years and shall also be liable to fine. Section 406 of the I.P.C. provides that whoever commits criminal breach of trust shall be punished with imprisonment  of either description for a term which may extend to three years, or with fine, or with both. Therefore, period of limitation for taking cognizance of commission of offences under Sections 498-A as well as 406 of the I.P.C. is three years as provided under Section 468 (2)(c) of the Cr.P.C.

From Para 11,

In Arun Vyas and another v. Anita Vyas (supra) also it was held that offence under Section 498-A of the I.P.C. is a continuing offence and that there would be a new starting point of limitation on each occasion on which the victim was subjected to cruelty. It was specifically held that the last act of cruelty was committed when the victim was forced to leave matrimonial home.

From Para 12,

12.
Thus, in view of nature of offence under Section 498-A of the I.P.C., it has been consistently highlighted that court should adopt liberal approach in favour of extending of period of limitation under Section 473 of the Cr.P.C. However, it is now well-settled that while taking cognizance after expiry of period of limitation, the Magistrate has to pass a speaking order assigning reasons for exercise of the discretion under Section 473 of the Cr.P.C.

Posted on June 30, 2019 by ShadesOfKnife

In this landmark judgment, Apex Court held that offence under Section 498-A of the I.P.C. is a continuing offence and that there would be a new starting point of limitation on each occasion on which the victim was subjected to cruelty. It was specifically held that the last act of cruelty was committed when the victim was forced to leave matrimonial home.

Shalu Ojha Vs Prashant Ojha on 23 July, 2018

Posted on June 29, 2019 by ShadesOfKnife

In this proceedings, Apex Court has observed some interesting information. Take a look.

From Para 6,

It is not understood as to how petitioner’s share of expenditure is Rs. 1 lakh per month out of Rs.1.5 lakhs monthly expenditure. Likewise, it is not explained in Col. 16 as to in what form, income of Rs. 1.5 lakhs per month is generated and who is earning that income. Of course, the petitioner has otherwise maintained that she is not having any other source of income except the amount of maintenance given to her by the respondent. The petitioner has also stated that she is compelled to live in her parents house as the maintenance amount is not sufficient even to pay monthly rent of an aparment.

From Para 8,

In the reply affidavit filed by the respondent, it is averred that the petitioner is maintaining four bank accounts and the total amount lying in these accounts is Rs.8,36,610/-. It is also stated that the petitioner is having fixed deposits in the banks for a total sum of Rs. 35,75,000/-. In this manner, the total bank balance of the petitioner is Rs.44,11,610/-. As against this, the respondent has paid to the petitioner a sum of Rs.49 lakhs from June 4, 2009 to July, 2017. Thus, in the last eight years, against a sum of Rs.49 lakhs paid by the respondent to the petitioner, the petitioner is still having bank balance of Rs.44 lakhs. According to the respondent, it would be inconceivable that petitioner has spent only Rs.5 lakhs of rupees (or little more if interest earned by the petitioner on the aforesaid Rs.49 lakhs is added) in eight years and that shows that she has other sources of income as well. Other averments in the petitioner’s affidavit was also denied including her share of expenditure in the neighbourhood of Rs.1 lakh per month or that respondent is earning Rs.20 lakhs per month. In respect of the particulars given by the petitioner about the businesses of the respondent, the respondent has denied the same and submits that, at present, there is no Restaurant or Bar anywhere in India in which respondent has any share or interest. He has his own explanation and has given alleged circumstances in which he had to give up his share in certain businesses. The petitioner has controverted his averments in her rejoinder affidavit. During arguments, the petitioner also tried to demonstrate, by referring to certain documents filed by her, that the respondent was indulging in falsehood.

Advice from Supreme Court, hmmm

In these circumstances, the appropriate course of action would be to allow the petitioner to file an application for maintenance under the Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act, 1956 or under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 so that in these proceedings, both the parties lead their documentary and oral evidence and on the basis of such material, appropriate view is taken by the said Court.
