For Petitioner : Mr.V.R.Venkatesan For Respondents : Mr.P.Kannithevan Government Advocate (Crl.Side) O R D E R Seeking a direction to the second respondent police to correct the Registration number of the vehicle involved in an accident, relating to Crime No.214 of 2011, the petitioner, who is the de-facto complainant, has come up with this petition. 2. According to the petitioner, the vehicle involved in the accident, is a Share Auto bearing Registration No.TN 59 AQ 5843. But the actual number of the vehicle is TN 58 X 1851. In the first information report, the number of he vehicle is mentioned as TN 59 AQ 5843. This, according to the petitioner, is wrong and therefore, the first information report has to be amended. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 3. In my considered opinion, FIR being an earliest document may not be amended that too at the intervention of this Court of the registration number of the vehicle involved in the accident given in the FIR is a mistaken entry, in the final report, the correct number can be given by ascertaining the same. Therefore, amending the first information report is unknown to law. In such view of the matter, this petition is dismissed.
