The Karnataka High Court remarked that the State admits the Pratap Simha FIR was sent to a court without jurisdiction, as the prosecution argued that the lapse is a mere irregularity and no ground to quash the proceedings.
The Madras High Court dismissed AIADMK MLA SP Velumani’s challenge to a Rs 7 crore income-tax assessment and penalty. It upheld proceedings under Sections 153C and 271AAC(1), finding no procedural irregularity or violation of natural justice in the case.
