德里高等法院撤销了由家庭财产纠纷引起的刑事诽谤案,裁定在法庭诉状、警察申诉和一封未签名的信件中提出的指控,如果是善意地提出,则不构成诽谤。 The Delhi High Court quashed a criminal defamation case arising from a family property dispute, ruling that allegations made in court pleadings, police complaints, and an unsigned letter are not defamatory if made in good faith. 法院强调,这类陈述受到提出法律案件的权利的保护,不应受到刑事诽谤指控,因为诉讼中的虚假主张是通过伪证法处理的。 The court emphasized that such statements are protected under the right to present a legal case and should not be subject to criminal defamation charges, as false claims in litigation are addressed through perjury laws. 它没有发现任何证据将被告与未签名信件联系起来,并裁定司法诉状不构成公开出版,而公开出版是诽谤的一个关键要素。 It found no evidence linking the accused to the unsigned letter and ruled that judicial pleadings do not constitute public publication, a key element of defamation. 法院的结论是,继续审理案件将滥用法律程序,驳回申诉和相关命令。 The court concluded that pursuing the case would abuse the legal process, dismissing the complaint and related orders.
