Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Jul-14-1999

Reported in: 2000CriLJ1184; 1999(6)KarLJ605

M.F. Saldanha, J.1. We have heard the learned State Public Prosecutor on merits because after taking us through the facts and figures, his submission was that the acquittal order in this case is unjustified because it can clearly be demonstrated from the dates and figures that the offence of misappropriation has been made out at least in respect of two amounts of Rs. 1,000/- and Rs. 754-30 ps. The submission was that even assuming there is some reference to amounts being due to the accused by the society that it is an entirely different head of liability and cannot justify the accused who was the Secretary dipping into the society's funds.2. We need to record here that this case, like many others, is one in which there is an accounting shortage that has been alleged. If the accused was in charge of the society's affairs and if on an examination of the audit report and/or records some shortage is discovered, it could in an appropriate case create a civil liability insofar as the accused...
