Learned counsel, while relying on the judgment of a Magistrate 1st Class dated 9‑9‑1986, contended that the petitioners have succeeded in establishing in the Criminal Court that a fraud had been committed: So much so that an Advocate who was involved in the alleged fraud and was an accused in that case, made a confessional statement. He was accordingly convicted and let off on probation though the other accused had absconded. According to him, the said judgment would come i7 conflict with the judgment impugned in this case, if the High Court's judgment is not set aside and the case remanded for trial on merits.
