Sir in case the police officer is intimidating or threatening you then in that case you may give complaint to senior police officers and ministry of home, state. If on your complaint no action is take file a private complaint with the magistrate.
But police officer have given me dead line of 20 th April 2020 & have also threatened that he will arrest me & file cheating case against me on 21st April 2020 also the officer is of higher rank & it’s difficult to approach police station due to his connections... His intentions are to beat me up in lockup to creat pressure. In past also he sent his Freind accompanied by other police officer at my residence some where around two months ago .... I need to understand which department I can approach to handel such powerful officer
You are not liable to pay any money
money was given by friend to your client
let your client file complaint against police officer with police commissioner
No police can threat a person unless and until FIR is registered.
Even after registration of FIR the police can only investigate and extort money.
So you can lodge online complaint with higher officials of police about this extortion.
Since you are in no way into the picture of this monetary transaction the police can no way approach you whether FIR is registered or not.
See you kay approach the Home department of the state and file complaint before state home minister as police is under same department.
Dear Querist
Are you the Guarantor for this transaction? if not, no need to worry, immediately file a complaint against him before the Human Rights Commission and also file a complaint against him before the Commissioner of Police and Copy of Chief Minister and Home Minister of the State.
after your complaint, if he or any other police officials taken any false action against you then these complaints can be used as a shield.
you may also file a complaint case against him before the Criminal Court under section 190/200 of Criminal Procedure Code-1973 after lockdown.
Feel Free to Call
Dear Sir/Madam,
You are suggested to approach ministry of home and chief secretary of state and make suitable complaint against the police officer and his friend for money lending and creating undue pressure.
1. If you have arrangements of payment then why waiting for the lockdown to over,
2. Make payment and relax,
3. If you want to take legal action, immediately lodge a formal complaint against him and send the copy to the higher police officers in addition to the concerned home minister and chief minister
He can't legally pressurise you for the same. If he is doing the same illegally you can file a complaint or also go to twitter against him
It is his money. That is why he is interested. You have to go to a court. Engage a lawyer for this purpose. He will file an application before a magistrate.
1. You can prefer to file complaint against the Officer & other related persons, to the Police Vigilance dept., and the Anti Corruption Bureau, by providing all available evidences of any type that you might have.
2. Do not bother about the high status of the officer. The bigger they are .... the harder they fall. He is only playing with your fear.
No case of cheating made out. And without lending license, no one can charge interest on borrowing. Complain to media and commissioner.
- The legal functions of the police are to deal with the detection and investigation of crime, arrest of offenders, collection of evidence etc.
- In order to keep a check and to curtail the severe problem of police violence or abuse, the Supreme Court of India instructed the government at state and district level to set up Independent Police Complaints Authority.
Further, the police cannot threaten family members or friends of an individual who is a suspect in a crime.
- Hence, the acts of threatening you in the garb of extortion is against the norms and ethical code of criminal provision. You should lodge your complaint against that police official before the higher official of police department
- You should also lodge your complaint before the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) and State Commissions for prevention of violations of human rights.
- Lodge your complaint after narrating all the details of threatening online , and keep a copy with you.
- Further,amount taken by your client , you are not accountable to pay as per law.
- Further , without lodging an FIR , the police official has no power to arrest & detained you, and further the police is not a recovery agent to recover the amount from anyone , except Court .
- If, you are frightened , then move an application with the help of any lawyer for anticipatory bail , even during the period of lockdown , as there is duty magistrates /session judges for hearing urgent matters.
Good luck and dont forget to rating Positively.
1. State Government would have established an institution called Police Complaints Authority to take care of receiving complaints against the Police personnel of the State.
2. Complain against that particular Police Officer who is harassing you to the Police Complaints Authority for taking legal action.
3. You can also file a private complaint in the jurisdictional court, if you don't get positive response from the Police Complaints Authority.
1. How are you even liable for the acts of your client?
2. If money has been taken by your client then liability falls on him and him alone.
3. Send a representation immediately to higher police officials and then file for anticipatory bail as soon as FIR gets filed.
Respected sir ...
As we all know that in our constitution have provide right of equality before law to each and every person weather the person is senior police official or he is is a common man so sir there are several options available for us where we can complaint against him first of all you must have to complain regarding such kind of extortion to his senior officials if they do not take action then you must have to approach your cm and if if no action will be initiated then you can make a complaint to pm office apart from this there are anti corruption bureau unit where you can file complaint against him they will definitely take action against him there are provisions in law but first you have to complaint against him only legal action can be initiated after that ...
Thank you
It is better that your client pay the amount demanded by the police officer because you cannot trust the police.
They may turn against you anytime.
Your client can make a request to the police officer to bear with him till the lock down is lifted, if he is not listening, then he may arrange to pay the same somehow, because taking any action against the concerned police may be very easy now, whereas at a later stage your client may be subjected to various tortures and harassment due to this.
So better think it over properly and take a wise decision.
The police will ultimately help police only hence you may better take a proper decision to return his money at the earliest possible.
Now since he has given a time till 20th April, you may inform him to collect the same from your home since you cannot come outside home due to lock down.
For a compliant against police, you may have to give it to the concerned police station only.
Do you think you will get any justice by lodging a complaint against the police?
1. You should take this act to media or ask your friend to approach that police officer directly and take time that he will pay the money as soon as lockdown is lifted.
2. You can approach Vigilance department that police officials is harassing you for money and asking for bribe and asking you to pay money on 20th of April or he will lodge false cases against you.
3. Record his calls and give copy to vigilance department during investigation but not now.
File written complaint against police officer with commissioner of police
you should record his threats . It would help you in making out a case against officer
The money paid is to your client under proper MOU, as such, you are not liable.
Let your client file complaint against the said Officer who is threatening.
Next time, if any one comes / threatens, record the same and file complaint to the concerned police station marking copies to DCP / SP / CP and also Home Minister by enclosing the details available with you.
You are not liable for cheating.
As threatened, due to present prevailing situation, no complaint muchless, private complaints pertaining to cheating etc., will be entertained. However, be careful, to record / take photos of any untoward hpappens.
