Section 372 CrPC | Victim’s Right to Appeal Acquittal Reinforced Post-Celestium Financial : MP HC Indore

MP High Court sets aside an order rejecting a victim’s appeal under Section 372 CrPC, emphasizing that lower courts must reconsider appeals in light of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Celestium Financial. The decision reaffirms that victims have a statutory right to challenge acquittals without requiring special leave, strengthening appellate access in criminal proceedings.
