Ashwani v. State of U.P. and Another
Case brief
What is this about?
The applicant sought to quash proceedings under Section 12 of the PWDV Act having been already appealed to the Sessions Court. The court held that since a special appeal under Section 29 lies, the High Court cannot interfere under Section 482 CrPC.
What did the court decide?
Application for quashing proceedings under Section 482 CrPC dismissed; available alternative forum is the Sessions Court under Section 29 of the PWDV Act.
