law: Indian Wireless Telegraphy Act, 1933
  6. Offence and penalty 
  (1) Whoever possesses any wireless telegraphy apparatus, other
  
  than a wireless transmitter, in contravention of the provisions of section 3 shall
  
  be punished, in the case of the first offence, with fine which may extend to
  
  one hundred rupees, and, in the case of a second or subsequent offence, with
  
  fine which may extend to two hundred and fifty rupees.
  (1A) Whoever possesses any wireless transmitter in contravention
  
  of the provisions of section 3 shall be punished with imprisonment which may
  
  extend to three years, or with fine which may extend to one thousand rupees, or
  
  with both.
  (2) For the purposes of this section a court may presume that a
  
  person possesses wireless telegraphy apparatus if such apparatus is under his
  
  ostensible charge, or is located in any premises or place over which he has
  
  effective control.
  (3) If in the trial of an offence under this section the accused
  
  is convicted, the court shall decide whether any apparatus in respect of which
  
  an offence has been committed should be confiscated, and, if it so decides, may
  
  order confiscation accordingly.
  Comment: All members of the household cannot be
  
  charged like this without more. A-13, being the wife of A-12, was living with
  
  her husband A-12 and merely on that account knowledge and intention cannot be
  
  attributed to her, particularly when no overt act is alleged against her. She
  
  is acquitted of all these charges and her conviction and sentence set aside.
