Application For Transfer of Jail For Accused
Application For Transfer of Jail For Accused
___________________,
Ld. Judicial Magistrate 1st Class, Hisar.
Respectfully showeth:-
1- That the above noted case is pending before this H`ble court and police has falsely
implicated the applicant in this case. The applicant is confined in the central Jail-1,
Hisar due to judicial custody.
2- That (mention special ground) like any difficulty being faced by the family
members of the detenue.
3- That it is settled law ruled out by Hon`ble Apex Court in State of Maharashtra
& Ors. v. Saeed Sohail Sheikh 2013, that the power to direct transfer of the
undertrial prisoner from one jail to another clearly vests with the Magistrate/ Court
which had remanded the detenue to a certain prison. Therefore, in a case of an
undertrial, who has already been remanded to custody by the trial court in the name
of the Superintendent of a particular jail, can only be removed from that jail by
seeking a judicial order from the trial court or by the court of Learned Magistrate
concerned.
