R. Srinivasan v. the Inspector of Factories and Boilers
Case brief
What is this about?
A criminal miscellaneous application sought to quash cognizance taken under Section 92 of the Factories Act, 1948. The court quashed the order, holding the complaint was barred by limitation as it was filed outside the three-month period prescribed by Section 106 from the date of the incident, despite a later show cause notice date.
What did the court decide?
Petitioners' application allowed; private complaint and cognizance placed under Section 92 of the Factories Act quashed.
