Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted leave and addressed the appeal against the High Court's order dated 08.05.2023, which quashed the framing of charges under Sections 498-A, 306, and 302 read with Section 34 IPC against the respondents. The Court emphasized that the High Court's decision to quash the charges was erroneous as the allegations warranted a thorough examination during trial. The Supreme Court reinstated the charges, thereby allowing the prosecution to proceed against the accused under the relevant sections of the IPC.
