You can add or remove the accused at any point of time during the trial.
But your prayer is to direct the police to register FIR u/s 156(3). Under the circumstances the court will not send summons to the accused.
Once the complaint is forwarded to the police for registering FIr, police will add the accused if needed at the time of investigation.
