1.107 crpc proceeding is a quasi criminal proceeding which is dealt with in Executive Magistrate court. So there is nothing to be serious about this.

2.So Engage an advocate who will assist you in remaining present in court and in getting your signature on the court papers.

3. Take information whether the police has registered FIR agaisnt the culprits or not.

If no then file a petition u/s 156(3) crpc in the court of the Magistrate.

4. if thereafter also the police does not take any action then file writ petition in high court agaisnt police inaction.

If it is 107 IPC - Abetment, then police should have included more offences including 107 and investigated, filed a charge sheet. If all this not done, then summoning you as said for 107 is doubtful.

If it is 107 Cr.Pc, an executive magistrate may take a bond from the accused for maintaining peace and good behaviour, wherein you may represent your objections.

Crpc 107 is asked when the magistrate is reported that the accused can harm the public tranquility and magistrate on satisfied reason can asked them.to execute a bond giving security.

Your complaint in matter so you also need to be present before court to depose before the court.

This is to bar the accused further causing any harm.

Also you can seek report from concerned police department by writing the letter regarding your case on pmo portal by marking same to higher officer. There is probability that in case your FIR is registered and matter is before Magistrate your complaint on the said portal is closed.

You should take a copy of FIR and chargesheet prepared and should see what offences are put on the accused person. If in case your not satisfied or police has not mentioned all events of beating trespass for same further investigation can be requested from court.

Proceeding under Sections 107 and 116 (3) CrPC is drawn when the Magistrate receives an information and believes after forming an opinion that there is substantial ground for proceeding against a person. Therefore, the said proceeding is indicative of the fact that at some point of time in the past the accused was involved in causing breach of peace or disturbing public tranquility.

2) you should appear in court on the next date

CrPC 107 is power conferred on executive magistrate not court. You have to represent your case through prosecution in court if it's filed and action is taken against accused by police. Alternatively you can file private compliant before court stating police have not taken any action against accused for causing grevious hurt to you and your wife.

Whether any FIR was filed? You need to check if police doesn't file FIR then you have to do private procecution against the accused.

You should hire a criminal lawyer for your case. If you are not at all aware of Court procedure it's better to seek expert guidance from a good lawyer. You should seek appearance on every date and prove your case with help of your lawyer. Also, you should keep the documentary evidence of the medical report of injuries that were caused to you on 14.11.2017.

Hello,

Yes your case is going in the right direction.

The police has already surrounded 5 accused.

Engage a local lawyer and appear before the magistrate in the court.

And section 107 must be of the IPC and not Cr.P.C.

Hi

Complaint on PMO portal might have been closed due to reason that FIR on same matter is already registered.

Everything seems going fine.

To give more detailed answer it is important to know that you lodged FIR in which sections.

Thank you

1. It seems that investigation by police is not being conducted in a free and fair manner. It doesn't seem to be going in the right direction. In these circumstances you may file a petition in the High Court for a fair investigation.

2. The High Court can change the investigating officer or even entrust the investigation to another investigating agency.

Since you are the defacto complainant, you would have been summoned for deposing evidence as prosecution witness.

You have to attend the court and depose evidence without fail or the court may issue a bailable warrant agaisnt you for abstaining from attending the court even after receiving the summons.

Without knowing the present status of the case no further advice can be given to expedite the case.

A local advocate on searching the record can advise to speed up the trial.
