Sandeep Miglani v Union of India
High CourtHelps departmentNo later treatment found
The Special Court summoned me on a benami complaint without examining the complainant, and I live outside its jurisdiction. Can I get the summoning order quashed?
Not on that ground. Where the complaint is made by a public servant acting in discharge of his official duties, the proviso to s.200 CrPC relieves the court of the need to examine the complainant and his witnesses. Section 202 CrPC does not prescribe how the inquiry is to be held, and perusal of the averments in the complaint together with the documents filed with it satisfies it. The application under s.482 CrPC was dismissed.
Listed strongest first: Supreme Court, then High Court, then Tribunal, then CBDT. Nothing here has yet been read in full by a chartered accountant — open an entry to see where it came from.
