Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's petition under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code, which sought directions for the registration of an FIR under Sections 302 and 201 IPC against police officials for the alleged murder of the appellant's son in a fake encounter. The Court emphasized that the High Court's decision was justified as the evidence presented did not warrant the registration of a new FIR, and the existing FIR was deemed sufficient for investigation. The Court concluded that the appellant's claims lacked the necessary substantiation to compel a CBI investigation.
