In a modus operandi to circumvent the law, the beleaguered Goa BJP Vice-President and OBC Corporation Chairman Anil Hoble has initiated the process of transferring on his brother Lavu’s name the two Excise licences issued to his wife Sandhya along the Ribandar-Panaji causeway.
The licences stand to be revoked as Sandhya Hoble along with her husband Anil and son Milind were booked by the North Goa Women Police Station under Sections 498-A, 323, 506 (ii) read with 34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 3 & 4 of the Dowry Prevention Act. As per the amendment to Rule 90 of the Goa Excise Duty Rules notified by a notification dated 4th August 2016 no Excise licence can be granted to a person having a criminal case registered. Ironically the amendment to the Excise Rules brought by the BJP in 2016 to debar criminally tainted persons from being issued Excise licences has now come to haunt its own party Vice-President Anil Hoble.
