JAYRAJSINGH DIGVIJAYSINGH RANA vs STATE OF GUJARAT

The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's application under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, to quash FIR No. 45 of 2011, which charged him with offences under Sections 467, 468, 471, 420, and 120-B of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. The Court noted that the appellant admitted to being a victim of fraud himself, having been cheated by the co-accused, and thus had no legitimate claim over the disputed plots. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision, emphasizing the validity of the FIR based on the allegations of collusion and forgery.
