Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the maintainability of a criminal appeal filed by a complainant under Article 136 of the Constitution of India. The case arose from a challenge to a High Court judgment involving charges of murder under Sections 148 and 302 read with Section 149 of the IPC. The core legal issue centers on whether a complainant has the standing to pursue a Special Leave Petition against an acquittal or High Court order in a criminal proceeding.
