    Legal Report: Dr Haneef Research Q 1-4

    As the world's population grew, so did political and economic instability, as well as major international conflicts. Tensions between countries and cultures tightened, and eventually and inevitably, one of them attacked. This terrorist act brought with it the panic and chaos fuelled haze that was post-911 Australia, and similar to many situations in the past, the fear and vulnerability associated with the community allowed the government quite a substantial amount of political power. This atmosphere of fear and ignorance lead to several incomplete and somewhat extreme pieces of Anti terrorist legislation to be passed by the Howard government, in order to ensure the safety of all Australians, or so they said. Dr Mohammed Haneef a doctor working in Queensland on a skilled migrant visa, soon found himself a victim of these laws. When two Indian men attempted to bomb an airport in Glasgow, UK, Mohammed Haneef became a suspect in the eyes of the Australian Federal Police, and was arrested shortly. Several blunders and misinterpretations by the AFP lead to the wrongful detention and charging of Dr Haneef, a man who spent a total of 12 days in detention without being charged and had his visa unfairly revoked during his trial. Haneef was eventually released and all charges were dropped against him, when the Public Prosecutor determined that there was no legitimate trial against him. However, the course of events that Dr Haneef experienced brought to light the glaring dilemmas associated with Australia's radical Anti Terrorist laws and corresponding government agencies.…

    Indian Act Research Paper

    The Indian Act is just one of many policies developed by the government of Canada in order to assimilate and colonize First Nations people of Canada. The Indian Act sets forth racist, colonizing and assimilating properties in order to control First Nations people and ensure their right to self-determination is abolished. Women’s rights, property rights, and self-determination are just three aspects of the Indian Act that has negatively impacted First Nations people in Canada throughout history and to this day. The Indian Act especially impacted women as it took away their right to status in certain circumstances. Property rights were also affected as the government took away the rights to the land, and continues to use it for their benefit today. Lastly, the Indian Act has not helped First Nations people and their fight for self-determination in Canada, more so it has attempted to assimilate and completely colonize First Nations people without regard for their right to self-government. The amendments to the Indian Act were done to fix the wrong doings of the original Indian Act, however the Indian Act still has a far way to come before it is completely fair and acknowledges the rights of the First Nations people in Canada…

    Judicial Control of Administrative Action in India and Writs

    One of the important field of the study of the administrative law is the „‟Judicial Control of Administrative Action in India. Today the power of the administrative authorities become very strong and thus it resulted different complications and repercussions in the socio-economic field in India. Therefore, considering the day to day increasing power of the administrative bodies judicial control is become an important area of the administrative law as because the judicial department i.e. Courts have proved to be the more effective and beneficiary branch than any other Parliamentary or Legislative or Administrative action for the purpose of the controlling the administrative action in India. In this regard Prof. Jain & Jain rightly quoted that, “the real kernel of democracy lies in the courts enjoying the ultimate authority to restrain all exercise of absolute and arbitrary power. Without some kind of judicial power to control the administrative authorities, there is a danger that they may commit excess and degenerate into arbitrary authorities, and such a development would be inimical to a democratic Constitution and the concept of rule of law” .Administrative law also provides for control over administrative action by an outside agency strong enough to prevent injustice to the individual while leaving the administrative agencies adequate freedom to enable them to carry on effective administration. “Administrative Action” is a very comprehensive term in which all the actions of administration are included. Administration is the meeting point of three types of government functions. The executive performs the residue of all these functions which are not vested in the two other branches of government i.e. the legislature and the judiciary.1 Administration exercises a variety of powers. Administrative action may therefore, be legislative or judicial or neither, i.e. it could be discretionary non-judicial…

    Law of India

    A del credere agent is a mercantile agent who in addition to his work of bringing a contract between his principal and third parties also undertakes to be liable to the principal for the default of the third party to perform the contract.

Before the British intervention into Malay states, Malays were governed by Malay adat law and for the non-Malays, they were governed by personal laws or if they were British subjects, English law. These laws continued to apply, subject to modifications made by specific legislation, until the formal reception of the English law.…
