-42_Twenty Third Day^s Proceedings.htm TWENTY-THIRD DAY’S PROCEEDINGS Mr. Chukervarti continuing his address said that on Thursday he was dealing with the question about the Chhatrabhandar being concerned with the conspiracy and in order to formulate matters, which were alleged for the purpose of establishing that proposition by the Crown, Counsel desired to place before their Lordships the summary of the grounds of suspicion. One of them was that there was a provision that thirty percent. of the profits should be devoted to the benefit of the public. With Page 274 regard to this particular complaint he need not labour because the learned Judge had pointed out that in point of

-56_Thirty Seventh Day^s Proceedings.htm THIRTY-SEVENTH DAY’S PROCEEDINGS Mr. Norton continuing his address on behalf of the Crown referred to the marks on Indra Nath’s body and read the evidence relating to them. It was incumbent on the defence to have given substantial evidence with regard to the so called marks and thus to have `given the Crown an opportunity of testing the truth or otherwise of the story put forward as regards the marks on his body. As regards Indra Nath’s connection with the Chatra Bhandar it was admitted that he was the Secretary of that Association, 40 per cent of the earnings of which were to be set aside for the good of the country. Indra Nath’s name also appeare

-60_Forty First Day^s Proceedings.htm FORTY-FIRST DAY'S PROCEEDINGS Mr. Norton continuing his address on behalf of the Crown in the case against Birendra Nath Sen said that among the documents found at the search of this appellant’s house at Sylhet was a letter addressed to Birendra by one Probodh .Of whom the Crown knew nothing. This letter was clearly an answer to a post card written by Birendra to Probodh, and it breathed a spirit of insubordination to the constituted authority of the land. Counsel submitted that the letter went to show that the views entertained were really those of Birendra and it showed further that he was in entire sympathy with the views expressed by the writer. It

-75_Reference-Sixth Day^s Proceedings.htm SIXTH DAY’S PROCEEDINGS His Lordship resumed the further hearing of the reference in the Alipore Bomb Case. The Advocate General continuing his argument on behalf of the Crown narrated the overt acts. He began with the attempted bomb outrage at the house of the Mayor of Chundernagore. It was in evidence that in the first week of April three bombs were sent to Indra. It had been proved that the bombs that were thrown at the Mayor’s house contained sulphide of lead. The usual ingredient used in bomb-making was sulphide of antimony. There was nothing to show why this departure was made in this case. It was proved that the black powder that was found in

NINTH DAY'S PROCEEDINGS   Mr. Das said the main point he made on the plans was that on the 6th different places were shown in the hall at the garden and it was not explained how certain things found on the 7th and 8th were not noticed on the 6th when the different places inside the hall were shown to the plan-maker. Counsel did make an observation: with regard to the numbers, but he now found that Inspector Frizoni in his evidence said : "On the 6th I think I took some blank form of search lists. I do not think I took a copy of the search list on the 2nd . The plan maker was there that day. I pointed out the places where several things

EIGHTH DAY'S PROCEEDINGS    Their Lordships having taken their seats Mr. Das said :—My lords, before I proceed to deal with the case I beg to bring to your Lordships’ notice the fact that one of the appellants before Page 226 your Lordships died last night and that is Asoke Chandra Nandi. He was arrested at 134 Harrison Road and was tried in the High Court under the Arms Act for the fact that bombs were found at 134. He was subsequently acquitted of that charge and inspite of that acquittal proceedings against him under section 121 were continued before Mr. Birley. Further, inspite of the clear finding of Mr. Birley that the ev

-43_Twenty Fourth Day^s Proceedings.htm TWENTY – FOURTH DAY’S PROCEEDINGS Mr. Chuckervarti continuing his address on behalf of Indra Nath Nandi said he had only a very few observations to make with regard to the judgment in the .Jamalpur case. His submission was that that judgment was not admissible in evidence in support of the previous conviction and that was admitted. It was not admissible as a fact showing either the state of mind or intention of a person within the meaning of section I4 of the Evidence Act. He understood Mr. Norton to suggest that it was evidence under section 14 of the Evidence Act. In point of fact the judgment and conviction was not a " fact" within the meani

Eighth Day's Proceedings EIGHTH DAY’S PROCEEDINGS       His Lordship resumed      The Advocate-General continuing his address, referred to some more incriminating evidence against Krishnajiban Sanyal. He then took up the case of the appellant Sailendra Nath Bose who was convicted by the Sessions Judge of Alipore under sections 121A. and 122 of the Indian Penal Code and sentenced (to transportation for life.

Twenty - Fourth Day's Proceedings THIRTY-FOURTH DAY’S PROCEEDINGS         Mr. Norton continuing his address on behalf of the Crown said that at the last sitting of the Court he was dealing with the case of Sudhir Kumar Sircar and was discussing the postcards and he would repeat his remark that they were scurrilous post cards. The case for the Crown had always been, and still was, that the postcards and the other letters did go from Khulna and were written by Sudhir. But should it be that it was not so, and should it be that these two letters were in the handwriting of say Nibaran, then Counsel submitted that that fact, if true, made the case against Sudhir infini
