    Judegement

    Summary In Criminal Appeal No. 66/2026, the 6th Additional Sessions Judge at Surendranagar allowed the appellant's appeal and set aside the trial court's conviction. The court found that the trial court violated principles of natural justice by denying the accused effective cross-examination of the complainant's evidence. The judgment emphasizes that cross-examination is an integral part of natural justice, and without providing the accused a fair opportunity to test the complainant's credibility, the conviction cannot stand. The case involved alleged cheque dishonor under the Negotiable Instruments Act, Section 138. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
