Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed multiple appeals concerning the prosecution of a Deputy Registrar under Sections 420, 467, 468, 471 IPC, along with Sections 34 and 120B IPC. The Court established that the essential elements of conspiracy and forgery must be clearly demonstrated for a conviction under these sections. The appeals were disposed of collectively, emphasizing the need for substantial evidence to support the charges, ultimately leading to the dismissal of the appeals against the acquittal of the respondent.
