Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court, in this case, addressed the appeal by I.C.I.C.I. Bank against the Allahabad High Court's order directing the registration of a case based on allegations of cheating and conspiracy under various sections of the IPC, including Sections 120-B, 406, and 420. The Court held that the police must register an FIR when a cognizable offense is reported, emphasizing the duty of the police under Section 154 of the CrPC. The Court upheld the High Court's directive, reinforcing the principle that victims of alleged crimes have the right to seek police action and judicial intervention when necessary.
