Case Summary: Crl.A. No. 995/2000 Bihar State Electricity Board v. Om Prakash Gupta The Supreme Court granted leave and allowed the appeal, setting aside the High Court's order that had quashed criminal proceedings. The High Court had wrongly quashed charges under IPC Sections 420, 201, 120-B and Prevention of Corruption Act Sections 13(1)-(2) solely because the accused were exonerated in departmental proceedings, ignoring voluminous investigative material collected by the Electricity Board. The Court remanded the matter to the High Court for fresh reconsideration in accordance with law, directing it to examine whether prima facie sufficient material existed to frame charges.
