So mad at the shah circus (including anupama coz she will always be shah) that I wanna get on a flight to Ahmedabad and lodge an FIR right now!🤣Originally posted by: Harish111
This is wrong, anyone can file the FIR. This is the india law i quote below
For serious offenses like murder, attempt to murder, kidnapping, threat, theft, etc
"Who can lodge an FIR? Anyone who knows about the commission of a cognizable offence can file an FIR. It is not necessary that only the victim of the crime should file an FIR. A police officer who comes to know about a cognizable offence can file an FIR himself/herself"
For non serious offenses like forgery, cheating, public nuisance, also called non cognizable crimes
"A victim or the person who has knowledge about the commission of a crime can file a complaint under Section 200 in the Code Of Criminal Procedure, 1973. The Magistrate who takes the cognisance of an offence upon complaint examines the complainant and the witness, if any, upon oath."
I wonder how people were thinking murder cases etc work. Will the dead victims come and file a case themselves? The above law is for all cases btw and not only serious ones
