JUDGMENT
Dated this the 13th day of January 2021
This contempt case was filed alleging violation
of interim order passed by this court dated
15.10.2020. The petitioner in this contempt case is
the writ petitioner. This court by an interim order
dated 15.10.2020 restrained conducting fish and meat
stall by the 9th respondent. 9th respondent entered
appearance before passing the order. It is alleged
in the contempt case that from 16.10.2020 to
18.10.2020, the respondent in violation of the
interim order conducted the stall. A police
complaint was registered by the petitioner. The
police noted that there are slice of beef and pork
in three buckets. The 9th respondent submits that he
has not conducted sale and he was removing the stock
available with him and no contempt is made out.
2. There is no evidence to show that sale has
taken place except noting that 3 buckets of beef and
pork are available. There is nothing on record to
show that the respondent was engaged in the sale of Con.Case(C).No.1998 OF 2020 IN WP(C). 20221/2020
those items.
In such circumstances, I am of the view that no
prima facie case is made out for proceeding against
the respondent. Accordingly the contempt case is
closed.
