U.Subhadramma & Ors vs State Of A.P Rep.By Pub.Prosecutor & Anr

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal filed by the legal representatives of Ramachandraiah against the dismissal of their petition under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code. The Court noted that Ramachandraiah was accused of misappropriation under Sections 409, 468, and 471 IPC, and while he was found responsible for the offences, he could not be convicted posthumously. The Court upheld the order of the District Judge for the attachment of Ramachandraiah's property under the Criminal Law Amendment Ordinance, 1944, affirming that the appellants failed to prove the properties were self-acquired, thus maintaining the attachment order.
