Summary

The High Court of Bombay accepted the reference made by the Sessions Judge of Ahmedabad in three cases involving the accused being convicted under Section 152 of the Bombay Municipal Boroughs Act for allowing hand-driven lorries with fruit to remain on a public street. The Court held that the hand-cart did not fall within the prohibition of Section 152 and set aside the convictions in all three cases, ordering fines to be refunded.
