An advocate has moved the Allahabad High Court’s Lucknow Bench, seeking Rs 1 crore from the Union Law Ministry for allegedly protecting former CJI Dipak Misra from “humiliation, insult, torture, and removal.” The court will hear the plea today.
The Supreme Court quashed an FIR under Section 498A of the IPC against a brother-in-law while observing that a Court should consider whether the implication is an “over implication” to pressurise the family of the husband to yield to the wife’s demands. The Court observed that the allegations in the FIR against the brother-in-law were nothing but an exaggerated version invariably suggesting “over implication.” The Bench dismissed the complainant’s appeal challenging the quashing of proceedings against the brother-in-law by the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
