it is the duty of the investgating officer to cotract with the informant. but if it appears from the investigation that there is no proof of the commission of the allreged offence the I/O may submit the final report before the CJM/MCJM with aprayer to release the accused persons.

Mr. Barbora is absolutely right. But after decision of the case u can file a criminal case against the complainant, if the accused in present case gets acquittal in the present case.

No action can be taken on the ground that the complainant does not pusue effectivelly in the matter. moreover, it is duty of police to contact the complainant and other witnesses for investigation.

In my opinion Rakhi told about a malicious prosecution claiming compensation.

Anish goyal (Advocate)     27 July 2009

But for proving malicious prosecution one need to prove active participation. Here facts shows that complainant only launch a fIR. I couldn't see any proving of malicious prosecution. Correct me please if i am wrong.
