Dr. Rini Johar & Anr. vs State Of M.P.&Ors.;

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the arrest of the petitioners under FIR no. 24/2012, which invoked Section 420 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 66-D of the Information Technology Act, 2000. The Court emphasized that the arrest must be based on credible evidence and proper procedure, and noted the absence of witnesses during the arrest, which raised concerns about its legality. The Court ultimately held that the arrest was unlawful and quashed the FIR, thereby providing relief to the petitioners.
