Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the dismissal of an application under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, seeking to quash an FIR for offences under Sections 384, 467, 468, 471, 120-B, and 506(2) IPC. The Court held that the allegations of forgery and criminal conspiracy were sufficient to warrant investigation, emphasizing that the power of attorney was allegedly forged and that the complainant had not authorized the seventh appellant. The Court upheld the High Court's decision to dismiss the quashing application, allowing the FIR to stand.
