The bench was hearing a petition filed by Anjali Damania, an activist, seeking quashing of the FIR registered against her in January 2021.
The prosecution case was that she had wrongfully restrained a businessman.
Additional public prosecutor KV Saste informed the Court today that a chargesheet had been filed against Damania in April 2022.
He also told the Court that the same investigating officer had filed both chargesheets.
He explained that the primary chargesheet was based on the statement and material handed over by the complainant.
However, subsequently after summoning Damania, the supplementary chargesheet came to be filed based on her statement and material submitted by her.
The supplementary chargesheet clarified that the prosecution found that Damania had played no role in the case.
Saste argued the same could be used as a ground by Damania for seeking discharge in the case.
