Marupaka Durgamma v. The State of Telangana
Case brief
What is this about?
In Writ Petition No. 17340 of 2016, the Court allowed the petition and set aside a notice under Section 122 Cr.P.C. requiring the petitioner to pay ₹1,00,000 for breach of a bond. The Court held that mere arraignment on a subsequent complaint does not constitute a conviction necessary to prove a breach of a good behaviour bond.
What did the court decide?
The impugned notice dated 04.03.2016 under Section 122 Cr.P.C. is set aside, and the writ petition is allowed. Pending miscellaneous petitions are closed.
