Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in quashing FIR No.41/10 registered under Sections 468 and 471 IPC, as the allegations in the complaint, if taken at face value, could constitute an offence. The Court emphasized that the bar under Section 195 Cr.P.C. does not apply in this case, allowing for the investigation to proceed. The appeal was allowed, reinstating the FIR and the investigation against the respondents.
