The High Court of Punjab & Haryana allowed Jasmeet Singh's application for leave to appeal against the trial court's acquittal of Kanwaljit Singh Walia, and directed the matter be transferred to Sessions Court to be registered as an appeal under Section 372 CrPC/413 BNSS, 2023. The court applied the Supreme Court's recent ruling in Celestium Financial v. A. Gnanasekaran (2025) that victims have an independent right to appeal acquittals without statutory restrictions applicable to the State or complainants.
