Amended Cr.P.C. Section 160 clause (1) Proviso. Provided that no male person under the age of fifteen years of woman shall be required to attend at any place other htan the place in which such male person of woman resides.

Give a letter to the IO asking him to come to your place citing some reason for not going to Police Station. It will be more practical.
