    Case Summary: Crl.R.P. No. 17 of 2025 Court Decision: The Principal Sessions Judge dismissed the criminal revision petition and confirmed the lower court's dismissal of the FIR registration request. Key Reasoning: The court held that the dispute is essentially civil in nature involving property title, land usage rights, and consent issues—not cognizable criminal offences. Although the petitioners alleged document forgery and illegal soil excavation worth ₹3 crores on their Vellore land, the court found the allegations lack foundational evidence (expert opinion or signature manipulation proof). Critically, the District Collector had granted valid permission for soil excavation dated 29.03.2022, which the petitioners never challenged before competent authorities. The court determined that registering an FIR would constitute abuse of criminal process to settle a civil dispute.
