Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the dismissal of a petition under Section 482 of the CrPC, which sought to quash the FIR alleging kidnapping under IPC Sections 363 and 366-A. The court noted that the complainant had later restricted her allegations solely to one accused, Vikram Roop Rai, and confirmed that her daughter had married him. The court ultimately ruled in favor of the appellant, emphasizing the importance of the complainant's retraction of allegations against him.
