How to know if an FIR has been filed or not? Somebody lodged an FIR in the police station on theft of ornaments. The theft case prima facie seems to be false. But the police are calling me with the benefit of doubt. I don't know whether the FIR has been registered or not. What should I do?
Whenever an FIR is lodged the police officer sends a report to the concerned Magistrate under Section 157 of the code of criminal procedure.
You can get the information about the FIR from the district civil court. You should file a questionnaire in the registry section (najarat) of the district civil court along with requisite court fee.
Next day the najarat will answer your question and also provide the FIR number if any first information has been lodged against you.
