Interim relief against criminal proceedings and an Interpol notice was refused where the applicant had absconded and no prima facie case was shown.
Constitutional law – interim relief – criteria for interim injunction: prima facie case, irreparable harm, balance of convenience. Criminal procedure – prosecution in absence – effect of accused absconding from trial on entitlement to interim constitutional relief. Evidence – admissibility – hearsay and statements of legal opinion in supporting affidavits inadmissible for interim applications. International cooperation – Interpol notices – not a bar to domestic prosecution or to enforcement of criminal law where accused absconded.
