I am an Advocate from Tamil Nadu.
*Clarification required*:
A 26 years man is working is a Brick Kiln for daily wages. High voltage electric line is passing across the Kiln. The owner didn't take any precautionary measures.
The servant met electric shock in due course of work. Till now FIR not filed. I sent representations through RPAD. Now i want to file petition U/s 156(3) of CrPC.
What penal offence will attract on owner?
What is the procedure to claim compensation?

Insufficient information. You need to file a case claiming compensation.

You can complain to Labour Commissioner for safety and compensation. Normally they take unnamed workmen compensation. If available, you can check on preferring the claim by employer.
