    Case Summary: Sofior Rahman v. The State of Meghalaya Court Decision: The High Court of Meghalaya granted the petitioner's prayer to consolidate three FIRs (Cases 19/2026, 07/2026, and 32/2026) registered against him across different police stations, directing that cases from Tura and Songsak police stations be transferred to Araimile Police Station where the first FIR was filed. The court accepted the State's concession that all three cases arose from the same Facebook post and therefore violated the legal principle against multiple proceedings based on identical causes of action, as established in *T.T. Antony v. State of Kerala* and *Amish Devgan v. Union of India*. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
