- Law
- Indian Penal Code.
Indian Penal Code, 1860: The judgment discusses Section 420 IPC, noting that the FIR was registered for an offence punishable under this section. The judgment also discusses Section 415 IPC, which defines cheating. The court quotes the provision in its entirety. The court then analyzes whether the ingredients of Section 415 are met, referencing the case of *Mohd. Ibrahim v State of Bihar*. It concludes that the ingredients of cheating under Section 415 IPC were not made out against the appellant. The court also notes that as the ingredients of Section 415 are not found, it cannot be said that there was an offence punishable under Sections 417, 418, 419 or 420 of the Code.
