Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the issuance of summons against the appellants under Sections 406 and 409 IPC, affirming the Patna High Court's decision. The Court found that the complaint was not barred by limitation under Section 468 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, as the allegations of cheating and misrepresentation were substantiated. The Court emphasized that the complainant's claims were valid and warranted a trial, rejecting the appellants' arguments regarding the complaint's merits and the alleged suppression of facts.
