Atr filed without proper investigation

(Querist) 11 January 2023 This query is : Resolved 
I have filed a Complaint before the Magistrate under Section 156(3) crpc. The IO has filed ATR stating the case to be of civil nature. On the bare perusal of ATR, it can be seen that proper investigation has not been carried out.

Though after making arguments before the Magistrate, the Magistrate has directed the IO to again file a fresh ATR.

If the IO will file the ATR without any proper application of mind again, what will be the best alternative remedy available to get the FIR registered
Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 11 January 2023
you have to protest again.

In the meanwhile you may meet the SSP with request to change the IO.

You have not at all disclosed as to what is the case. Therefore, it is difficult to comment whether at all contention is IO wrong or not and if wrong then on what aspect.

My client has made certain recurring deposits with a company for a period of one year. After a point of time, the company stopped collecting further deposits and did not repay the collected amount. On being inquired their mobile phones were switched off and their addresses were fake.

facts now revealed by you indicate criminal angle to the case and the contention of police seems wrong.
