Amita Trivedi & Anr vs State & Anr on 30 July, 2012

"Thus, simultaneous investigation/prosecution of the petitioner in two separate F.I.Rs. for the very same allegation is not permissible. The other part of the impugned F.I.R. relates to the allegation that the petitioner gave a wrong declaration regarding the number of her children while filling the nomination papers. Obviously, the said act would constitute an offence of furnishing false information to a public servant. These allegations even if accepted, would be covered by the offences punishable under Sections 171(g) and 177 I.P.C. or possibly for the offences under Sections 181, 193, 199 and 200 I.P.C. All these offences are either non-cognizable or are of such nature that either no prosecution can be launched in relation thereto without there being a complaint of the public servant concerned. Hence, no F.I.R. can be registered for these allegations at the instance of a private individual. The factual scenario of the case at hand is squarely covered by the ratio (Downloaded on 08/03/2022 at 08:48:58 PM) (4 of 4) [CRLMP-6522/2021] of this Court's judgments in the cases of Amita Trivedi & Anr.
