Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the Kerala High Court's order acquitting the accused under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, stating that the High Court misread evidence regarding the liability amount. The Court emphasized the need for proper examination of the probative value of documents and the evidence of the complainant, PW-1. The matter was remitted to the High Court for fresh consideration, thereby allowing the appeal.
