Police always filing petty cases instead of fir

Sir,

In our locality, one person is habituated in doing unlawful activities by managing local police station and repeatedly commiting crimes like attacking on social workers,threatening,obstructing social activities in the locality. When ever any resident give complaint in local police station against that person, the police is filing only petty cases not filing any FIR and now four petty cases are registered and that accused just paying fine in the court and coming out and again repeatedly doing crimes.

We are unable to know, why the police is not filing FIR againts this person. What we have to do to get FIR registered against that accused ?

Thanks,

Narayana Swamy

Hi

Thank you for your question

sec 154 of crpc define FIR ( First InformationReport) - If police registered a FIR than police becomes duty bound to perform investigation on that , I do understand your anxiety in sec 156(3) magistrate has right to told the police to make action on it and register the FIR.

Hope this will help you

Bedst regards, 

Akshay Gupta

1. IF Police is not registering FIR, THEN you can file private criminal case under the relevant applicable IPC sections, with supporting documents, evidences & witnesses.

If the society is really depressed and scared of such secum just go togather and meet the higher police offiicail and District magistarte too  with written complaint. Highlight the issue in social media and  above all file a joint complaint  before the magistrate

As the police is ed to have been lodging complaints and forwarding it to Court, which is stated to be mild where accused gets out with minor penalty, did you file any protest petition against the charge levelled, proceedings andstat holding guilty before imposing fine ?

Dr J C Vashista (Advocate)     21 February 2020

Unbelievable statement.

How the Court can impose fine / penalty / any other punishment on the accused without a FIR ??

Dr J C Vashista (Advocate)     21 February 2020

It is advisable to consult a local prudent lawyer with relevant documents for appreciation of facts/documents, professional guidance and necessary proceeding

P. Venu (Advocate)     21 February 2020

Yes, even a petty case requires that FIR be lodged.
