Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the Special Leave Petitions challenging the Punjab & Haryana High Court's order which upheld the issuance of process against the petitioner under Sections 420/34 IPC and Sections 7, 8, 9, 11, and 13 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988. The Court held that the absence of sanction for prosecution does not invalidate the complaint if the process has been issued correctly. The Court found no merit in the petitioner's argument regarding the abuse of process, affirming the High Court's decision to dismiss the revisions.
