Quashing PMLA cases like false Section 498A cases (Supreme Court): The Supreme Court expressed concerns over the misuse of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and warned that it might start quashing cases if they are found to be false, similar to its approach with false Section 498A cases (dowry harassment). The court emphasized the need for proper scrutiny and credible evidence in PMLA cases to prevent harassment of innocent individuals. This decision underscores the judiciary's commitment to ensuring that anti-money laundering laws are not misused and that justice is served fairly.
