Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the appellant, Sangeeta Chowdhury, was deprived of her property without being afforded an opportunity to be heard, violating principles of natural justice. The Court emphasized that the attachment of property under the Sanchaita Investments case must respect the rights of the original owner, as per the provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court ruled that the High Court's dismissal of Chowdhury's objections due to a defective Vakalatnama was improper, and thus the case was remanded for reconsideration of her objections.
