NOTE on the decision of the Judicial Committee in Sayad v. Muhammad Yusuf-ud-Din v. R. reported in 76 L.T. p. 813 [1897].

On the eve of publication, my attention has been called to the above decision which I had unfortunately overlooked.

A Railway Magistrate was also appointed.

The appellant, a subject of the Nizam, resident at Haidarabad, but not within the railway lands, was arrested on a warrant issued by the District Magistrate at Simla on the application of the Resident at Haidarabad, on a charge of abetting an attempt to bribe a person at Simla.
