The petitioner has already preferred a statutory appeal under section 60 of the Bombay Police Act, 1951 and therefore, we are not inclined to entertain this petition. 2. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the State Government takes long time for deciding the Appeal which may defeat very remedy available to the petitioner under the Statute of the Bombay Police Act, 1951. Needless to say that such an Appeal should be decided as expeditiously as possible and at least within 2 1/4th of the period of externment. 3. Petition stands disposed of accordingly. (J.N. Patel,J.)
