BNSS Section 482 | Landlord Not Automatically Liable for Tenant's Cyber Fraud Without Direct Involvement : Allahabad HC Grants Anticipatory Bail

Allahabad HC rules that mere financial transactions between a landlord and tenant do not establish criminal liability in cyber fraud cases under BNSS. Anticipatory bail granted where the landlord had no direct role in the fraud, reinforcing that vicarious liability requires active participation or knowledge of the offense.
