Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the legal implications of wrongful restraint under Section 341 IPC and the applicability of Section 34 IPC in the context of a property dispute involving Gharda Chemicals Limited. The Court held that the actions of the accused in continuing construction work despite a stop-work notice constituted wrongful restraint, affirming the lower court's decision to proceed with the charges. The judgment clarified the responsibilities of parties involved in property disputes and the enforcement of municipal regulations.
