I know that on a commission of cognizable offence, an FIR is filed. This FIR should be produced in front of the Magistrate along with the accused if arrested.
My querry is:
1. What happens to the FIR if an accused has not been identified and hence not arrested.
2. Can an FIR be filed against unknown persons and presented before the magistrate.
3. What does the magistrate do if accused is not known.
