Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court dismissed the petition under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, affirming the High Court's decision to not quash the complaint under Section 420 IPC. The Court held that the allegations in the complaint, if taken at face value, could potentially disclose an offence of cheating, as defined under Section 415 IPC. The Court emphasized that the existence of a civil dispute regarding the property does not preclude the possibility of criminal liability for cheating.
