M/S Zandu Pharmaceutical Works Ltd.& ... vs Md Sharaful Haque & Anr on 1 November, 2004
18. It is well settled that the power under section
482 Cr.P.C has to be exercised by the High Court, inter
alia, to prevent abuse of the process of any court or
otherwise to secure the ends of justice. Where criminal
proceedings are initiated based on illicit material
collected on search and arrest which are per se illegal
and vitiate not only a conviction and sentence based on
such material but also the trial itself, the proceedings
cannot be allowed to go on as it cannot but amount to
abuse of the process of the court; in such a case not
quashing the proceedings would perpetuate abuse of the
process of the court resulting in great hardship and
injustice to the accused. In our opinion, exercise of
14
power under section 482 CrPC to quash proceedings in
a case like the one on hand, would indeed secure the
ends of justice. This court in Zandu Pharmaceutical
Works Ltd. & Others v. Mohd. Sharaful Haque &
Another (2005) 1 SCC 122 observed thus:-
M/S Indian Oil Corporation vs M/S Nepc India Ltd., & Ors on 20 July, 2006
In Indian Oil Corporation v. NEPC India
Ltd. & Others (2006) 6 SCC 736, this court again
cautioned about a growing tendency in business circles
to convert purely civil disputes into criminal cases. The
court noticed the prevalent impression that civil law
remedies are time consuming and do not adequately
protect the interests of lenders/creditors. The court
further observed that any effort to settle civil disputes
and claims, which do not involve any criminal offence,
by applying pressure through criminal prosecution
should be deprecated and discouraged.
