Criminal Procedure Code, 1973 — S. 482 — Quashment of proceedings under Ss. 419, 420, 323, 504 and 506 IPC

It was held that even if all the allegations in the complaint taken at the face value are true, the basic essential ingredients of cheating are missing, as it could not be said that averments in FIR and allegations in the complaint against appellant constituted offenses thereunder, therefore, this case was fit for High Court to exercise jurisdiction under S. 482 CrPC and to quash criminal proceedings against accused under Ss. 419 and 420 IPC. Para 10

But, regarding proceedings under Ss. 323, 504, and 506 IPC, High Court has rightly not quashed such proceedings, which shall be continued as per charge-sheet and shall be disposed of in accordance with the law, on their own merits. Para 11

(2021) 3 SCC 751 – Archana Rana v. State of U.P.
