Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking to quash FIR No. 156 of 2015, which was filed under Sections 498A, 406, 384, 420, and 120B IPC. The Court noted that the second FIR was based on the same allegations as the first FIR but was filed in a different jurisdiction. The High Court's decision was affirmed on the grounds that the Udaipur police were unaware of the earlier complaint and thus entitled to investigate the new complaint, establishing that multiple FIRs can be filed for the same set of allegations if jurisdictional issues arise.
