A later FIR was not barred as a second FIR because it arose from a distinct factual foundation and separate transaction, despite some common parties. Non-bailable warrants were also not recalled because the petitioner had not joined investigation despite notice and had failed to honour an assurance to appear. The Court therefore declined interference at the investigative stage and left the petitioner to ordinary remedies in law. en-us Sat, 28 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 07 Mar 2026 08:39:14 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=787504 Interim protection in a quashing petition is available only in rare and exceptional cases where the FIR discloses no cognizable offence or continued investigation would cause miscarriage of justice; on the facts, allegations of diversion and siphoning of funds required investigation, so stay of investigation was refused.
