Karnataka vs Krishna Venkatesh

crpc_bnss general beginner real_case

Abhi abhi dekh raha hoon yeh case aur lagta hai yeh bahut relevant hai. Supreme Court ne 1992 mein yeh case suna tha jismein police ke pass FIR lagaane ki kya limit hai. Case ki baat karte hain to, Krishna Venkatesh ne police ke khilaf kuch charge lagaye the aur unhone kaha ki FIR lagaane se pehle investigation karni chahiye. SC ne yeh case khara tha aur kaha ki FIR lagaane ki koi limit nahi hai, chhote se bhi allegation ki FIR lagaa sakte hain. Community ka kya mana hai is par? Kya yeh theek hai ki FIR lagaa jaye jahaan bhi allegation ho, ya kya yeh police ko problem banati hai?
