Case Summary: Nayan Prasad v. State of Bihar The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal filed by accused Nayan Prasad and others challenging the High Court's refusal to quash a criminal complaint filed by the deceased Rameshwar Prasad's wife for offences under IPC sections 498A, 323, 406, 379, and 504. The appellants' discharge petition and Section 482 quashing application—based on territorial jurisdiction grounds—were rejected by both lower courts as unjustified. The Court directed the Magistrate to decide the complaint on merits within six months, rejecting the appellants' attempt to use technical pleas to delay substantive adjudication.
