Holding
The petition is dismissed as ineffective because an FIR under MCO 310 of 2026 has already been filed.
Summary
The petitioners, Smt. Kavita and another, filed a writ petition before the Allahabad High Court against the State of Uttar Pradesh and three others. The court observed that a First Information Report (FIR) under MCO 310 of 2026, invoking sections 87, 137(2) and 351(3) of the B.N.S., had already been lodged on 17 September 2026 against the accused identified as Yachi No.2. The petitioner’s counsel was unable to rebut this submission. Consequently, the court held that the petition had become ineffective in view of the pending criminal proceeding. The petition was therefore dismissed as a matter of law.
Issues considered
- Whether the writ petition is maintainable when an FIR concerning the same matter has already been registered.
