A dismissal of the earlier complaint for non-prosecution under Section 256 CrPC, without adjudication on facts or law and without any trial finding, does not amount to such a determination. On that basis, the prior complaint dismissal did not attract double jeopardy, and the FIR could not be quashed on that ground. en-us Mon, 30 Jan 2017 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 11:05:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=338715 Section 300(1) CrPC bars a later prosecution only where the earlier case resulted in a trial before a competent court and a conviction or acquittal for the same offence, or on facts involving the same essential ingredients.
