Hi All,
In a criminal case investigation the LWs (Law Witnesses) made statements before IO (Investigation Officer) against a persons (name as "X"), who is not accused in that criminal case, and CrPC-161 statements are recorded by the I.O.
These law witnesses made statements that are not even made by the complainant and the I.O prepared the final report saying that "X" done some thing ..... and aslo the IO referred the complainat as false.
Here IO has no role to investigate the things that X has done being no complaint has been made against the X and aslo the accused do nto support the statements against the X.
Question:
Can X file case against the law witneses that made false stateemnts against the X ?
If yes, please let me know the section of IPC attract against these law witneses ?
If criminal case can be filed against the law witnesses at which place the X can file case against them considering that: the X lives at Bangalore and the law witnesses statement says that X did things at Bangalore but the law witnesses made statements in another state.
