Headnote | Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 – s. 102 – Freeze orders and bank guarantee in furtherance there of were imposed against the appellant company on grounds of necessity of investigation of an alleged crime initiated against one ‘D’ allegedly connected to the appellant company – Held: Accused-‘D’ was never an employee/ share holder/director or a key managerial person in the appellant company – Since ‘D’ was in no way connected to the appellant company, the trial faced by him, was in his individual capacity, and not vicariously on behalf of the appellant company – No criminal proceedings whatsoever are pending against the appellant company pertaining to the dispute at hand – Furthermore, ‘D’ has been discharged of the alleged offences by the Trial Court – Even assuming that his discharge is subsequently reversed, and he is convicted, such a conviction would still have no bearing on the properties of the appellant company, since it is not alleged to be a part of the crime – The purpose of the freeze order and the bank guarantee in extension of the freeze order, can only be in operation to aid in the investigation against the alleged crime – Since the appellant company is in no way connected to the alleged crime, the freeze order against its properties is redundant qua the investigation – As the investigation against the appellant company is redundant, hence, the freeze of the appellant company’s assets and the bank guarantee imposed in furtherance thereof also becomes redundant – Therefore, the condition imposed upon the appellant to furnish a bank guarantee by the Courts below is not sustainable and is set aside – Orders impugned modified – Appellant permitted to withdraw the amount along with 4% simple interest. |
