The Bombay High Court’s decision in High Court on Its Own Motion v. State of Maharashtra & Ors. (2025 SCC OnLine Bom 3869) is a landmark ruling that reframes the recurring issue of potholes and poor road maintenance as a constitutional concern. The Court made it clear that safe, motorable roads and properly maintained footpaths are a part of the fundamental right to life under Article 21 of the Constitution of India.
⚖️ Supreme Court: Acquittal in Criminal Case Doesn’t Automatically End Departmental Proceedings
In a landmark ruling, the Supreme Court of India has reaffirmed that a criminal acquittal does not automatically translate into exoneration in departmental or disciplinary proceedings. The Court emphasized that both proceedings operate in distinct spheres, with different objectives, standards of proof, and evidentiary requirements.
Preventive Measures Against Frivolous FIRs: A Key BNSS Safeguard
Title: Preventive Safeguard Under BNSS | Section 173(3) Preliminary Inquiry Before FIR | Adv. Sanjay Bishnoi
Description: Learn how Section 173(3) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) introduces a preliminary inquiry before FIR registration to prevent misuse of criminal law. Explained by Adv. Sanjay Bishnoi, Criminal & Bail Lawyer, Sirsa.
⸻
The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) has brought a landmark change through the new proviso to Section 173(3) — aimed at curbing the misuse of criminal law and safeguarding innocent individuals from false or motivated FIRs.
Under this provision, the police must now conduct a preliminary inquiry before registering an FIR in cases where the alleged offence is punishable with imprisonment of up to seven years.
This reform departs from the older Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) system, under which FIRs were often filed mechanically — even in civil, matrimonial, or personal disputes disguised as criminal matters.

🧭 Introduction
Having your bank account frozen or marked with a lien can be financially and emotionally distressing. Whether it stems from a cyber fraud complaint, suspected illegal transaction, or police investigation, it’s important to know your legal rights and the correct steps to resolve the issue.
At Sanjay Bishnoi & Associates, we handle numerous cases involving bank account freezes, liens, and cyber crime complaints across Sirsa and Fatehabad. Here’s a comprehensive legal guide to help you regain access to your account.
⸻
🔹 Step 1: Contact Your Bank Immediately
Begin by contacting your bank account manager to determine the reason for the freeze.
• Ask which authority or cyber cell issued the order.
• Request written details or a copy of the communication.
• Maintain polite but persistent communication.
If the bank does not cooperate, engage your lawyer to communicate formally on your behalf.
⸻
🔹 Step 2: Gather All Transaction Details
Prepare documents to clarify your financial activities:
• Provide a detailed list of all recent transactions.
• Explain the purpose and source of each transaction.
• Attach proof of your job, business, or income to establish that funds are legitimate.
⸻
🔹 Step 3: Connect with the Cyber Cell or Investigating Officer
If your account was frozen based on a cyber complaint, contact the concerned cyber cell or investigating officer (IO) via phone or email.
• Share relevant documents to prove your innocence.
• Always consult your lawyer before appearing personally or giving any written statement.
Your lawyer can also submit formal representations to the IO requesting the release of your account.
⸻
🔹 Step 4: Engage a Legal Expert
If communication alone doesn’t resolve the matter, consult a criminal or cyber law specialist advocate.
A qualified lawyer can:
• File representations with the authorities.
• Draft and move court applications under appropriate legal provisions.
• Ensure that the investigation proceeds fairly and that your account is unfrozen swiftly.
⸻
🔹 Step 5: Legal Application to Remove the Freeze or Lien
If your account remains blocked, your lawyer may file a petition under:
• Section 497 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNSS), read with
• Sections 451 and 457 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC)
This legal route allows the court to order removal of the freeze or lien once satisfied that no fraudulent activity occurred.
⸻
🔹 Step 6: Removing the Lien
Even after an account is unfrozen, the bank may place a lien (legal hold) on the disputed amount.
• The lien remains until the investigation or trial concludes.
• To lift it, your lawyer can file an application before the court supported by your transaction documents and clarification.
Once verified, the court may direct the bank to remove the lien completely.
