MOSIRUDDIN MUNSHI vs MD.SIRAJ

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in quashing the complaint proceedings under Section 420 and Section 120B IPC, as the complaint disclosed cognizable offences. The Court emphasized that at the preliminary stage, the High Court should not conduct an inquiry into the merits of the case. The appeal was allowed, and the High Court's order was set aside, reinstating the complaint proceedings against the respondents.
