Mumbai Police has been embarrassingly incompetent in this case, no doubt. But this isn't just about them. The Supreme Court cannot set a precedent where anybody can register their case anywhere in India. Singhvi, counsel for Maharashtra, mentioned that in court too.
Mr. Singhvi said Rajput’s father had never approached the Mumbai police.
“Now, can a victim or an accused say I don’t like the Mumbai police and write to Kerala or Karnataka police to register a case? This is a fundamental assault on federalism. Opinion of accused, victim don’t change fundamental principles of law. Law and order is exclusively within State competence. Victims and accused don’t get to decide who and where a case will be investigated,” he countered.
He said the case should not set a precedent for flouting local jurisdiction and allow people to file FIRs in places remote from where the incident actually occurred.

As I've said before multiple times, Mumbai Police should lose the investigation and it should go to the CBI or even the National Investigation Agency(NIA) which does not require a state's permission but it should be through Maharashtra or The Supreme Court. Bihar has absolutely nothing to do with this case and the judge should not set a precedent which would cause massive headaches in the future with people filing FIRs all over the country instead of where the crime occured.
