Abstract

The idea of malicious prosecution is not essentially alien to Indian law. The tort of malicious prosecution can best be summarized as an institution of proceedings without probable and reasonable cause with malicious intent. This concept has been developed and expanded through judicial precedents over time. The most important aspect for a person alleging malicious prosecutions is to prove want of reasonable and probable cause which is assessed as a question of fact and not a question of law. Reasonable and probable cause has been defined in the case Rishabhkumar v. K.C. Sharma
