Hi,
an FIR was registered under 420/406 and other sections of IPC after the complainant filed an 156(3) complaint.
Police after Investihation has filed a Closure report stating thta the complaint is based on wrong facts and is not true based on evidence discovere during investigation.The accussed were never summoned by the Magistrate but now the Investigation officer is asking the accused to make sure that their lawyer is present when the other party will file a protest petition so that they can argure.
I have a few questions for experts:
1. Can or should the accussed make sure that their counsel is present when the protest petition is filed in front of MM to argue the case.
2. What will the MM do after receiving the Closyure Report from the Police.
Regards
Rahul
