New Delhi: The Supreme Court has refused to quash the criminal proceedings against Ideaforge Technology Limited, in connection with allegations of criminal breach of trust, cheating and unauthorised software disabling of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The Ideaforge is a prominent drone manufacturing company.
Upholding the order passed by the Madras High Court earlier this year, the Supreme Court Bench led by Justices J B Pardiwala and R Mahadevan dismissed the quash petition.
Top Court Observation
The Top Court observed that there is a prima facie criminal case of cheating and ordered Ideaforge to appear before the Trial Court. The Court further refused the plea to exempt the directors of Ideaforge from appearing in the Trial Court.
