Clubbing Of FIRs Arising Out Of Different Transactions In Multiple States Impossible : Supreme Court

The Supreme Court ruled that clubbing of FIRs arising from different transactions in multiple states is impermissible. FIRs can only be clubbed if they arise from the same incident or transaction. Attempting to combine complaints from unrelated cases across jurisdictions violates procedural propriety, can lead to legal confusion, and risks undermining the fairness of criminal proceedings. This judgment reaffirms the importance of jurisdictional boundaries, ensures law enforcement actions are properly constrained, and provides guidance on handling multiple FIRs while safeguarding procedural integrity in criminal law.
