Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court quashed the proceedings of CC Nos.1744/1999 to 1747/1999 and CC No.789/2001, affirming that the dismissal of Criminal Petition No.5380/2000 was not challenged and thus valid. The Court also allowed the withdrawal of civil suit O.S. No.170 of 1999, transferring it to the Supreme Court for disposal. The judgment emphasizes the authority of the Court to quash proceedings when justice demands it, leading to the disposal of both criminal and civil appeals.
