Satpal And Anr vs State Of Punjab And Anr on 16 September, 2022
Counsel for the petitioners further submits that once the same
issue has been concluded by the learned Civil Court and upheld by this
Court in RSA No. 3281 of 2017, the complaint dated 23.10.2010 (Annexure
P-1) is also liable to be set aside as the findings of fact recorded by the Civil
Court is binding on the Criminal Court. To support this contention, the
counsel for the petitioners has relied upon two judgments passed by this
Court in Amar Nath and another vs. Atma Ram reported as 2007 (2)
RCR (Criminal) 942 and Nirmala Devi and others vs. State of Punjab
and others reported as 2009 (4) RCR (Criminal) 468.
