https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=279362 Section 195(1)(c) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898 bars cognizance only for specified forgery-related offences when committed by a party to the proceeding in respect of a document produced or given in evidence in that proceeding. The provision did not apply here because the respondent was also prosecuted for offences outside the bar, and the alleged use of the forged bills under Section 471 IPC occurred before he became a party to the civil proceeding. The forged bills were not produced or tendered in evidence before the Company Judge. The trial was therefore not barred, the High Court had jurisdiction to proceed, and the discharge order was unsustainable. en-us Tue, 09 Dec 1975 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 14 Mar 2019 16:23:08 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=279362 Section 195(1)(c) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898 bars cognizance only for specified forgery-related offences when committed by a party to the proceeding in respect of a document produced or given in evidence in that proceeding.
