Mauvin Godinho vs The State Of Goa

The Supreme Court addressed Criminal Appeals challenging a Bombay High Court order that set aside charges under Sections 120-B, 409, 420, 465, and 471 IPC, while allowing charges under Sections 13(1)(d)(i) and 13(1)(d)(ii) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988. The Court held that the High Court correctly found no basis for charges of cheating or criminal breach of trust but affirmed the existence of prima facie evidence for corruption-related charges. The outcome was a partial upholding of the High Court's decision, allowing the prosecution to proceed under the Prevention of Corruption Act.
