  • DIRECTOR of PUBLIC PROSECUTIONS V JAGDAWOO V
    DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC PROSECUTIONS v JAGDAWOO V. & ORS 2016 SCJ 100 IN THE SUPREME COURT OF MAURITIUS SCR No. 7793 In the matter of: The Director of Public Prosecutions Appellant v. V. Jagdawoo & Ors Respondents JUDGMENT This is an appeal by the Director of Public Prosecutions against a judgment of the Magistrates of the Intermediate Court dismissing the 2 counts of an information brought against the respondents. Respondent No. 2 having passed away, the appeal now lies only against respondents nos. 1,3 and 4. The appeal is against the dismissal by the Court of the charge brought under count I of the information which was for an offence of “abuse of authority by public officers” in breach of Section 77 of the Criminal Code. The respondents, who were all police officers, were charged for having, on 12 January 2006 at Line Barracks Port Louis, wilfully and unlawfully committed an arbitrary act prejudicial to the Constitution of Mauritius in that they subjected one Ramdoolar Ramlogun, who was in police 2 custody as a suspect in a murder case, to inhuman and degrading treatment contrary to section 7 of the Constitution. The inhuman and degrading treatment was particularised as “physical abuse”. It is not in dispute that on 12 January 2006 Ramlogun was arrested by the police in connection with a murder case, he was detained at the Line Barracks Detention Centre and on 14 January 2006 he passed away whilst still in police custody. An initial question of law arose at the outset of the appeal concerning the scope of application of section 77 of the Criminal Code.

Although recent studies have examined the phylogenetics and systematics of this genus, relatively few have assessed the population genetics of species distributed on oceanic islands and no study has focused on the demographics of P. niger. Here, we present mitochondrial DNA sequence data from 39 individuals of P. niger collected from four main colonies distributed throughout Mauritius. Our results indicate that the Mauritian population of P. niger is likely panmictic, with moderate to high levels of gene flow occurring among colonies distributed across the island. Collectively, our sequence data suggest moderate levels of genetic variation within the population. These findings will help to inform ongoing conservation and disease surveillance initiatives. Key words: genetic structure, Mauritius, phylogeography, Pteropus niger INTRODUCTION The Mauritian flying fox Pteropus niger is re- stricted in its distribution to the Mascarene Islands In part associated with their wing structure and (Mauritius and La Réunion) in the southwestern size, nocturnal fruit bats of the Old World family Indian Ocean.
