Legal action against protection officer

(Querist) 03 August 2014 This query is : Resolved 
Experts,
Today, I have got copy of PO report. PO has written her own version in her report like hit my wife badly. Also its false and i never did this to my wife. In my wife petition in DV act also, she didnt mentioned any such violation. When PO come to my home, i was at office and no one at home. PO narrated story that "PO had discussed with my neighbours and couldnt gathered any incidents of violation in my home with wife". but, PO added all false allegation as directed by in-laws. I want to take legal action a against PO.So, other innocent will not trap like me in PO hand. Please help me in this regard.
Thanks.

The PO, being a public servant, is liable for disciplinary action for misconduct.

Inform the Court, in writing, through your counsel, for initiation of disciplinary action against the protection officer.

if wife in her complaint has not mentioned these allegations it appears to be an after thought inorder to strengthen the wife case . you have to in your defence mention that no such allegations of physical assault are made in complaint but have been added at later stage by the PO

You can not take any action against PO though you can dispute the Report in the court.

protected and immune these pos are to plead bona fide though their report is assailable.Has gone beyond jurisdiction inquiring a fact not alleged suggests bias.

as per to you the po had discussed the case with your neighbour, had he gathered their statements with him as an evidence if yes then you can challenge it by supporting the proof with you , if he had no evidences with him you can ask the evidences u/s 91 crpc in support of his allegation , if he had created / narrated/ fabricated the false statement in his DIR report to strengthen your wife case and you proved it false and wrong then you can report it to the concern magistrate for diciplinary action as well as you can file a police complaint u/s 167/218 ipc against him .

In the event of the PO submitting the report in favor of the girl with full of false and frivolous information allegedly fabricated as a gratifying towards the graft received, the said PO can also be summoned to the court for cross examination on the report submitted. If it can be established that he/she has given a false report, further necessary action can be initiated against he PO as per the provisions of law.
Advocate. Arunagiri (Expert) 03 August 2014
The role of a PO is to conduct enquiry and file a report to the magistrate. You will receive the summons from the magistrate court.

You have every opportunity to prove that the PO report is wrong. If you can prove that the PO had submitted a false report in favour of the wife, court will order for a disciplinary action on that PO.
