Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in quashing the proceedings against accused Nos. 1 and 3, emphasizing that the complaint sufficiently alleged their involvement in the forgery of a document. The Court clarified that it is not necessary for the complainant to detail the specific role of each accused at this stage. Consequently, the order of the High Court was set aside, and the trial court's summons to the accused was upheld, allowing them to raise defenses as per law.
