Section 482 CrPC | Successive Quashing Petitions Maintainable Only on New Circumstances: Allahabad HC Reiterates M.C. Ravikumar Precedent

Allahabad High Court dismisses a second quashing petition under Section 482 CrPC, holding that successive petitions for the same FIR are not maintainable unless supported by fresh material or changed circumstances. The ruling reinforces the Supreme Court's precedent in M.C. Ravikumar, limiting abuse of process in criminal proceedings.
