Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the Allahabad High Court's dismissal of writ petitions challenging FIRs under Sections 420 and 409 IPC and Sections 64 and 69 of the Indian Stamp Act. The Court held that the FIR disclosed a prima facie case of cognizable offences, emphasizing the urgency of purchasing insurance stamps for timely execution of policies. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision that there was no ground for interference in the FIR's validity.
