Case brief

AI extract

What is this about?

The High Court dismissed a petition under Section 528 BNSS seeking to quash criminal proceedings for forgery and cheating. The Court held that since the investigation was still in progress and the truth of the allegations was yet to be established, it was not a fit case for quashing the proceedings merely because a civil dispute existed between the parties.

¶32

The contents of lhe complaint point out spe I lic allegations against the petitioner that she is trying to encroach th: open plot of the de facto complainant with fabricated do m ents The investigation is still in progress. The truth is yet to be I rraveled

¶33

The learned counsel for the petitioner conten led that when there are civil remedies available, criminal proceecii. ;s^{cannot be} launched and relied upon the decision in Shiela iebastian v. R.Jawaharajl, wherein it was held that Section 464 IPC makes it clear only the one who makes a false document car re held liable under the aforesaid provision. But, in the said case, tl =^prosecution could not succeed to prove the offence of forgenr by adducing cogent and reliable evidence. By holding the same, tr e High Court has acquitted the accused by setting aside the concurT rnt f indings of conviction by the courts below. The said orders of i cquittal were upheld by the Supreme Court. But, the present case is still in the stage of investigation and the truth or otherwise in thr: allegatrons is yet to be culled out. Hence, the above said case !i w cannot be applied to the case on hand. Therefore, it is not a fit r ase to quash the proceedings at this stage and the same is liable to I e dismissed.
