Oriental Insurance Company Ltd vs Munimahesh Patel on 12 September, 2006
17. We rely upon the judgment of the Hon'ble Apex Court in the
case titled "Oriental Insurance Company Ltd versus Munimahesh
Patel reported in 2006(4) CivCC 203" Page 1 wherein it is held that
proceedings before Commission are essentially summary in nature
and issue which involve dispute factual questions should not be
adjudicated by the Commission. We find that complex factual matrix
requires in this case that matter should be examined by an appropriate
court of law in regular proceedings and not in summary manner by this
Commission. Since in the present case, there is dispute regarding
production and issuance of false documents, which the complainant is
not able to prove it as genuine and on the basis of which the
complainant lodged his claim for settlement, needs proper
investigation and evidence. Therefore, it is deemed appropriate to lay
our hands off the adjudication in this case.
