Like every year, the Bombay High Court in 2019 witnessed a flurry of fresh PILs and petitions filed and pronounced orders/judgements in plenty of old cases.Here is a look at the some of the most significant judgements/orders of the Bombay High Court in the past year. SC sets aside Bombay HC judgement Refusing Additional Time to the Police to file Chargesheet In October last year, the High Court set aside a Pune court order granting more time to the police for filing a charge sheet against lawyer Surendra Gadling and others accused in the case. In February 2019, Supreme Court set aside Bombay High Court's judgement which had refused to grant additional time beyond 90 days under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act for filing the charge sheet. RIGHT TO PRIVACY Phone Tapping Permitted Only In Case Of Public Emergency Or In Interest Of Public Safety Granted relief to a 54-year-old Mumbai based businessman, High Court quashed three separate orders passed by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs allowing Central Bureau of Investigation to intercept phone calls of the petitioner in a case of bribery involving an official of a public sector bank. DEATH PENALTY Following are some of the significant cases wherein, Court upheld or awarded death penalty - Shakti Mills Gangrape: HC upholds validity of Section 376 E of IPC and death penalty awarded to three accused Division bench of Justice BP Dharmadhikari and Justice Revati Mohite Dere on June 3, upheld the constitutional validity of Section 376 E of IPC challenged by the accused Vijay Jadhav, Mohammad Qasim Shaikh and Mohammad Salim Ansari, who were sentenced to death by the Trial Court for the gang-rape of an 18-year-old call centre employee in July 2013 and 22-year-old photojournalist in August 2013.
