DATED; 01ST APRIL, 2008 DATED; 01ST APRIL, 2008 DATED; 01ST APRIL, 2008 P.C.; P.C.; P.C.; 1. The petitioner has been served with a show cause notice as to why she should not be externed for a period of two years from the District of Bombay and Thane under section 56 (1)(a) of the Bombay Police Act 1951. She has been asked to file a reply and remain present on the day of enquiry. The learned APP submits that thrice the notices were given to the petitioner for appearance, for conducting the enquiry, but she has failed. We are afraid that the writ petition is premature as no order of externment have been passed by the authorities in pursuance of the show cause notice. Hence writ petition is premature and is accordingly dismissed. However, if the petitioner is aggrieved of any order passed, passed in consequence of the show cause notice, she is at liberty to take any remedy which may be available in law. (BILAL NAZKI J.)
