Criminal Court Must Be Fully Satisfied Regarding Accused's Abscondence Before Invoking S.299 CrPC: J&K&L High Court

The Jammu and Kashmir High Court has ruled on the "evidentiary value of a CAG report," citing that a "delay in filing an affidavit" is "not a sufficient cause to condone the delay." The court's decision, which is a significant victory for the government, was made on the grounds that the company's claim was not supported by evidence. The ruling clarifies that a company can be held responsible for the misdeeds of another person. The court's decision is a crucial reminder to all that they must be diligent in their dealings.
