Union of India & 2 Ors. ..Respondents. WITH CRIMINAL WRIT PETITION NO.2643 OF 2011 R.C. Thakur & Anr. ..Petitioners. Vs. Union of India & 2 Ors. ..Respondents. .......... Mr. Girish Kulkarni, a/w. Saket Mone, Vivek Kyadal, h/f. Vidhii Paratners, for the Petitioners. Mrs. M. H. Mhatre, A.P.P. for respondent No.2 – State. Mr. D.N. Salvi, for Respondent Nos.1 & 3. .......... CORAM : A. M. KHANWILKAR AND P. D. KODE, JJ. DATED : 17th OCTOBER, 2011. P.C. 1. Counsel for the petitioners submits that in two matters which have been brought before this Court, in all six bank- accounts have been attached by the Investigating Agency. There is no causal connection between the said accounts and the PPD 2 3WP.2642&2643-11 allegations in the complaint for which the investigation is in progress. He submits that from none of these accounts, payment was made to the society for purchase of the flat. 2. Counsel appearing for the CBI, on instructions, states that the case has already been registered with the Special Court and since the attachment of the six bank accounts referred to in the two Petitions pertaining to the petitioners before this Court is in connection with the said case, the petitioners be well advised to approach the Special Court who will decide the application in accordance with law on its own merits. We find force in this submission. 3. We, therefore, decline to exercise writ jurisdiction. The petitioners, if so advised, are free to prefer application before the Special Court for reliefs, as may be advised, including one claimed in the present Petitions. That application will have to be decided on its own merits in accordance with law. 4. Counsel for the petitioners submits that in that case the Special Court be directed to decide the application in a time bound manner. We do not think it necessary to so order. It goes without 3 3WP.2642&2643-11 saying that if the argument which is canvassed before us that on account of attachment of all the six bank accounts of the petitioners, even pension account of the petitioner Shri R.C. Thakur is affected, may be a factor to be kept in mind by the Special Court for passing appropriate directions as may be required in accordance with law. 5. Petitions are disposed of on the above terms. (P. D. KODE, J.) (A. M. KHANWILKAR, J.)
