Corruption and money laundering - HC has quashed the FIR - Viewed through the prism of gravity of allegations, a first information report based on "probability" of a crime having been committed would obviously be of a higher degree as compared to a first information report lodged on a "mere suspicion" that a crime has been committed - The High Court failed to bear in mind these principles and precisely did what it was not supposed to do at this stage.
