The Jharkhand High Court quashed criminal proceedings against Manoj Mandal for cheating, criminal intimidation, wrongful restraint, and insult charges arising from a commercial dispute over unpaid brick supplies (₹30,34,326 outstanding). The court held that mere non-payment in a civil commercial transaction, without proof of initial deception, does not constitute cheating; similarly, unsubstantiated allegations of beating and abuse lack essential ingredients for assault and insult offenses, making continuation of proceedings an abuse of process. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
