Mahindra & Mahindra F.S.Ltd.& Anr vs Rajiv Dubey

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Orissa High Court, affirming the taking of cognizance under Sections 406 and 420 IPC for cheating and criminal breach of trust. The Court found that the complaint, alleging that the appellants presented blank cheques despite the repayment of dues, constituted sufficient grounds for the offences charged. The Court ruled that the High Court's refusal to interfere with the lower court's order was justified, as the complaint did not amount to an abuse of the legal process.
