JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) THESE three connected applications in (sic)vision arise out of certain objections that were (sic)ferred by the three applicants in the three re- (sic)ons in respect of proceedings under
section 88 (6a) (sic) the Code of Criminal Procedure.
(2.) IT appears that one Chandra Mohan was accused of having committed embezzlement of
government funds while he was in Government employ and was serving as an 'ahalmad' in the
kanpur Collectorate. Chandra Mohan absconded, and on 6-11-1952 he was proclaimed an
absconder. On the same day an order was made for the attachment of the property of the
absconder Chandra Mohan. Some items of property were attached the same day; other items of
property were, however, attached later, that is to say, on 14-11-1952.
(3.) AFTER the attachment, objections were preferred by Shyam Mohan the brother of Chandra
mohan, by Pran Chaudhari the mother of Chandra Mohan, and Smt. Saraswati the widowed
sister of Chandra Mohan. These three objections were separately preferred, and apparently these
three objectors laid claim to different items of property which, according to them, belonged not
to the absconder but to the respective objectors. It appears that Chandra Mohan lived jointly with his mother, widowed sister and his brother
shyam Mohan; at any rate, this was the case of the objectors, and it was because of this joint
living that articles belonging to others were attached under a mistaken belief that the articles
belonged to the absconder.;
