Drunken driving cases: Air blank test on breathalyser mandatory, rules Kerala high court
Kochi: Kerala high court has held that it is mandatory to conduct an air blank test on a breathalyser and ensure that the calibration is at 'zero' before taking breath samples in cases. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The court observed that conducting an air blank test and confirming a reading of '0.000' ensures that the device is not influenced by any residual alcohol from previous tests. Justice V G Arun, who issued the ruling, also directed the state police chief to issue necessary instructions to officers to strictly follow this procedure, noting that many policemen are unaware of the requirement. The bench was considering a petition filed by a Thiruvananthapuram native seeking to quash a case registered against him for rash and negligent driving under the influence of alcohol. The police had intercepted the petitioner on Medical College-Kumarapuram Road at 8.30pm on Dec 30, 2024, and booked him under section 281 (rash driving) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), along with sections 181 (driving under the influence of alcohol) and 181 (driving without a valid licence) of the . According to prosecution, the breathalyser test showed an alcohol level of 41 mg/100 ml, exceeding the permissible limit of 30 mg/100 ml. However, the reading of the air blank test was 412 mg/100 ml. HC noted that an air blank test is essential to check for residual alcohol before taking a person's breath sample. The primary purpose of the test is to ensure that the breathalyser is functioning properly and is not contaminated by previous tests. In this case, since the air blank test result was not '0.000', the court held that there was no acceptable evidence regarding the petitioner's blood alcohol level, and therefore, section 185 of the Motor Vehicles Act (drunken driving) would not be attracted. HC also noted that since the petitioner had a valid licence, section 181 of the Motor Vehicles Act was not applicable. However, the court rejected the challenge to the charge under section 281 of the BNS for rash driving, stating that whether the petitioner rode the scooter in a manner endangering human life is a matter to be decided based on evidence at trial.

Indian woman found dead under mysterious circumstances in Sharjah flat; family alleges husband strangled her over dowry
An Indian woman was found dead under mysterious circumstances in her flat in the Rolla area of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates (UAE), on Saturday morning. She has been identified as 29-year-old Athulya Sekhar, originally from Kollam in Kerala. Athulya's parents have alleged dowry harassment by her husband, Satheesh. They have filed a police complaint, alleging that Satheesh strangled Athulya, kicked her stomach and hit her head with a plate between 18 and 19 July, leading to her death. They also claimed that their daughter was repeatedly harassed for not bringing enough dowry at the time of her marriage in 2014. The parents said that they had given a bike and 43 sovereigns of gold in the marriage. On the basis of the complaint, Kerala police have registered a murder case under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961 against Satheesh. Athulya's father Rajashekharan Pillai alleged that Satheesh was an alcoholic and often became violent. 'Once when she was physically assaulted, I was planning to take her back home. But he would apologise and she forgave him,' Rajashekharan said. Athulya leaves behind a 10-year-old daughter. According to media reports, Satheesh has denied involvement in Athulya's death and said he did not believe she would die by suicide. He too wanted to know what happened to his wife, he added. Insisting that Athulya's death was suspicious, Rajashekharan said: 'I don't believe that my daughter will die by suicide. She shares a very intimate relationship with her daughter. Her death is mysterious. We have to find out what exactly happened to her. He is an alcoholic. He always gets violent. She bore all the torture for her. Earlier, such issues had also happened, and a case was filed with the police. We want to know what exactly happened to her. Her family has also released videos showing Athulya with visible injury marks and her husband appearing to lift a plastic stool to hit her. The tragic incident comes days after the death of another Kerala woman and her 16-month-old daughter in Sharjah. According to the police, the woman had died by hanging herself after suffocating her child to death on 8 July. The incident had reportedly stemmed from marital dispute.
