https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=299209 FIRs registered by Lokayukta Police were unsustainable because the material before the police was not first information under Section 154(1) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. The complaint originated as a Lokayukta complaint, accompanied by a CAG report, and not as police information setting criminal law in motion; the FIRs also did not show suo motu registration under Section 157(1). The Court further stated that a CAG report, though relevant for legislative scrutiny, cannot by itself serve as the foundation for a criminal prosecution or replace proper police information in a criminal trial. The FIRs were therefore liable to be quashed. en-us Tue, 05 Jan 2016 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 06 Dec 2021 20:58:17 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=299209 FIRs registered by Lokayukta Police were unsustainable because the material before the police was not first information under Section 154(1) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.
