He was on the first motorcycle along with his brother Chandra Prakash and Dinesh Kumar. Guard of S.A.F. Anil Yadav, Ram Narayan Yadav and his bhabhi Manwati were on the second motorcycle. One Prem Narayan, Secretary was also coming behind by means of his motorcycle accompanied with S.A.F. Guard Yashbeer Singh. As soon as they reached at Kalapuram Dagrai Road, Petitioners restrained them, who were armed with 315 bore gun, 12 bore gun and they hurled abuses in respect of his caste and threatened that he would not be spared alive. Thereafter, they started firing towards them. On the report of the complainant, FIR concerning Crime No. 62/2009 is lodged against the Petitioners for the offences punishable under Sections 307, 147, 148, 149 of Indian Penal Code read with Sections 3(2)(v) and 3(1)(x) of the SC & ST (Prevention of Atrocities), Act.

3. It is contended by Learned Counsel for the Petitioners that FIRs in question have been got registered by two complainants separately arising out of common incident. Even date and time of the incident is same, witnesses are common in both cases. In both the FIRs, common story has been narrated. The first FIR concerning Crime No. 62/2009 has been lodged by complainant Suresh Ahirwar while the second FIR concerning Crime No. 63/2009 has been lodged by complainant Jashbeer Singh, who is security guard of first complainant Suresh Ahirwar. Due to registration of two FIRs, two separate charge sheets have been filed and the Petitioners are facing two different trials arising out of one incident. Petitioners cannot be punished for the same offence twice. It is also contended by Learned Counsel for the Petitioners that prima facie case under Section 11/13 of MPDVPK Act is not made out against the Petitioners. Hence, either the first FIR concerning Crime No. 62/2009 and entire subsequent criminal proceedings of Special Case No. 76/10 pending before the Court of Special Judge (Atrocities), Datia or the second FIR concerning Crime No. 63/2009 and entire subsequent criminal proceedings of Special Case No. 16/10 pending before the Court of Special Judge (Dacoity), Da
