Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellants' petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. against the High Court's order taking cognizance of offences under Section 420 and Section 120-B IPC. The Court established that the allegations of conspiracy and fraud were sufficient to proceed with the case, emphasizing that the dishonor of the cheque and the assurances made by the appellants constituted a prima facie case of cheating. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision to allow the prosecution to continue.
