It could be seen from the records that the present petitioner, along with others, had already filed a similar petition before this Court in Crl.O.P.(MD).No. 16337 of 2022 seeking to quash the charge sheet in C.C.No.549 of 2021 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate No.VI, Madurai. This Court, by order dated 15.03.2024, dismissed the said quash petition. In order to maintain a second application for quash, new grounds must be raised which were not urged in the earlier quash petition. However, on perusal of the petition in Crl.O.P.(MD).No. 16337 of 2022, it is seen that the grounds raised therein are almost similar to the grounds raised in the present quash petition. Therefore, this Court is of the considered opinion that the present second quash petition is not maintainable. 2/4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Crl.O.P.(MD) No.4643 of 2026 3.
