Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to quash criminal proceedings against the respondents under Section 482 Cr.P.C., finding that the evidence indicated the respondents were co-owners of the property in question and had obtained necessary permissions for construction. The Court established that the respondents could not claim forgery of signatures without prior objections, thus affirming the High Court's ruling. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the High Court's order as valid and justified.
