Gauhati High Court Upholds Validity of Second FIR in Lottery Scam Case, Dismisses Quash Petition by Atul Bokriya and Others
The Gauhati High Court has dismissed a petition seeking to quash an FIR and criminal proceedings against Atul Bokriya and others in a high-profile lottery scam case. The Court held that the second FIR, though overlapping in some allegations with an earlier FIR in Kolkata, disclosed distinct offences and rival versions, making its registration permissible under law.
