Deepak S/O Shri Ashok v. State of Rajasthan
Case brief
What is this about?
The Rajasthan High Court dismissed batch revision petitions challenging orders of cognizance passed by the trial court under the Banning of Unregulated Deposit Scheme Act, 2019. The petitioners argued lack of jurisdiction in Dausa, absence of documentary proof of their official roles in the cooperative society, and non-application of mind by the trial court. The court held that jurisdictional objections require materials on record which were absent, the statute empowers the government/Deputy Registrar to file complaints, and the trial court relied on available documents. The revision court declined to delve into factual merits regarding the petitioners' roles, noting such issues are for trial.
What did the court decide?
The batch of Miscellaneous Criminal Revision Petitions was dismissed for lack of merit, and the orders of cognizance by the trial court were upheld.
