Legal Question in Criminal Law in India
Is this a valid FIR
Ld counsels,
Below is the sequence of events.
1. Compliant's father files a complaint
2. Statement was recorded from complainants daughter and the opposite party
3. Complaint was withdrawn without registering any FIR
4. After one month another compliant was filed by the daughter with addtinal allegations.
5. FIR registered. It was mentioend in the FIR that first information was received on the date of second complaint. But there was no mention of first complaint in FIR.
Is this legally right way of registering the FIR based on a second complaint one month after the first compliant.

Re: Is this a valid FIR
If FIR was not registered on the basis of first complaint, then second complaint can be filed.
As far as improvements or additions in second complaint is concerned, you may take benefit thereof at trial.
Ensure to call first complaint in the court from the police station at the earliest.
