On merits, the trial court correctly held that questions about loans allegedly taken by the respondent or her family and about another case against a family member were irrelevant to the Section 138 NI Act complaint. Cross-examination must remain tied to relevant facts, and it cannot be used for roving, vexatious, humiliating, or lacuna-filling inquiry. The challenge was therefore rejected and no interference was made in inherent jurisdiction. en-us Tue, 02 Aug 2022 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 04 Aug 2022 08:32:17 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=425917 A petition styled under Section 482 CrPC was maintainable despite the challenge being directed against disallowance of cross-examination questions, as the High Court may examine whether the impugned order reflects error or perversity and is not bound to reject it on nomenclature alone.
