    The High Court of Jharkhand quashed an FIR against Subham Bhardwaj for criminal breach of trust, cheating, and criminal intimidation arising from a commercial transaction dispute involving unpaid dues of ₹2,68,55,829. The court found that the case involved a contractual dispute over underpayment rather than criminal offences, holding that mere non-payment in commercial transactions does not constitute cheating or criminal breach of trust absent initial deception, and that allegations of abuse lacked sufficient specificity to constitute criminal intimidation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
