The Supreme Court examined the High Court's decision to set aside the framing of charges against Rakesh Mishra and Gyanendra Singh Jadon under Sections 13(2) and 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, and Section 120B of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. The Court held that the High Court erred in its assessment, emphasizing that the evidence presented warranted the framing of charges for conspiracy and corruption. Consequently, the Supreme Court reinstated the charges against the accused, thereby reversing the High Court's order.
