Prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case because the charge was materially defective by omitting an identified payee (Arokiam), the Order as framed imposed an impossible compliance timeline when served late, and the prosecution relied on unmarked/unadmitted documents; therefore under s.173(f)(ii) CPC the accused must be acquitted and discharged.
