CrPC Section 239 | Coercion and Grossly Inadequate Consideration Sustain Prima Facie Case for Criminal Prosecution : Allahabad HC
Allahabad HC rules that execution of a sale deed under coercion and for a fraction of the market value (Rs. 1.2 lakh vs. Rs. 50 lakh) establishes a prima facie case for criminal prosecution, rejecting the discharge application. The ruling reaffirms that criminal liability persists even when civil remedies are available.
