SC quashes case against Ebay chief in MMS scam
A three-judge bench of justices Dalveer Bhandari, S J Mukhopadhyaya and Dipak Mishra quashed the cases registered against Bajaj under Section 292 (sale etc of obscene material) IPC and various provisions of the Information Technology Act.
The apex court quashed the cases on the ground that the company was not made a party to the case and only the Director of the company was roped in for the said alleged commission offence.
Bajaj had appealed in the apex court challenging the cases raising questions of the criminal liability of the Directors for an alleged offence when the company itself had not been roped in as a party to the dispute.
