Case: Devki Alias Kala Vs. The State Of Haryana

Parvati, an unsophisticated girl of 17 was wending her way home at about sunset along a public street in the artless town of Sitalpur in Bihar when Smt. Devki, the petitioner before us, with diabolic design, swooped down and snatched her into a taxi-cab and blized away. The weeping victim was medicated into unconsciousness, remove d to Dhanbad and further on, to destination Haryana. Tragically, where tourists abound, satellite industries in female flesh flourish, unless the State crusades with militant zeal to stamp out this terrible vice. Anyway, Parvati, by now en slaved in a village villa. was offered for marital sale to affluent lecherous youths. The damsel in distress desperately escaped through a half-ajar door and eventually landed in a police station. The police investigation unravelled the pathetic story and ended up in a case, conviction, appeal, confirmation and, finally, in this special leave petition to this Court which is the last refuge of every vanquished litigant.

Reasoning: The features of this case show that the petitioner suddenly descended in a taxi-cab and kidnapped the young woman, and when she cried out, administered the potion which rendered her unconscious. Furthermore, a well layout plan is discernible when we see the geographical spread of the crime. From a small town in Bihar, the girl is despatched to Dhanbad and from there, via Delhi, to Haryana, lodged in a house where young men were asked to view her for obvious immoral purposes. It is an insulting stultification of the amelioratory legislation viz. Probation of Offenders Act to extend its considerate provisions to such anti-social, specialist criminals.
