This query is : Resolved
Hi All
could someone answer this query as soon as possible please?
Can the police directly interfere in domestic violence cases with out the intervention of the Hon'ble Court of law?
Can a DV case be filed at the home town of the complainant when the husband and wife are not living together? ( Parties concerned are living separately for the past 2 months )
Can the Police summon the husband with out an order from the court?
Can the police conduct an inquiry directly based on the complaint?
Regards.

DV complaint can be filed where the complainant is presently residing . Under Section 12(1) of the DV Act, an application/complainant can be filed before a Magistrate either by an aggrieved person or by a Protection Officer or any other person on behalf of the aggrieved person

Police has no pwoer to summon the respondents at police station under DV Act, however, it can refer the matter to the concerned court.
