Complain against I/O to commissioner of police So that departmental inquiry can be done to investigate the misconduct.
In 2020, my mother (aged 60, OBC caste, School Principal) had ongoing disputes with the Vice Principal and his wife (both Upper Caste), who took over her position after her retirement. A 17-year-old Class 12 student later accused my father under POCSO, claiming my mother had sent her to our house to collect answer sheets, where my father allegedly touched her inappropriately. School timings were 9:00 AM to 1:30 PM, and the school, my house, police station, and her residence are all within 300 meters. IO sent a handwritten document (signed by him) requesting: - Attendance sheets - Teachers’ names and Aadhaar, - CCTV footage. My mother submitted all, and the IO signed the receiving copy. The records showed: 1. All Class 12 students, including the girl, confirmed her presence all day. 2. Teachers gave handwritten confirmations, especially for the Sanskrit class (11:50–12:20), where she was the only student. However, none of these were added to the Case Diary or Charge Sheet. The IO denied receiving any documents during cross-examination. Current stage: Section 313 CrPC completed. 🔹 Questions 1. • The police deliberately removed my father's mask during the COVID pandemic, so that news reporter can take his photo, which they published and circulated it in the media. The news falsely mentioned that a “School Principal” was involved and action will be taken against her, causing social humiliation and mental trauma to both my parents. ➤ What legal actions (civil or criminal) can I take against the police for this violation of dignity, privacy, and defamation? 2. • The charge sheet and case diary falsely claim that my father was caught the next day while fleeing into a jungle to evade arrest. • However, during cross-examination, both the girl’s mother and the female constable clearly stated that my father was already in police custody immediately after the complaint was filed. ➤ What criminal or departmental actions can be initiated against the Investigating Officer (IO) for presenting false information in official documents & deliberately hiding all school records and documents which IO obtained from Principal and lied during cross-examination? 3. • Due to the police’s false narrative, my parents suffered immense mental harassment and social damage. ➤ What remedies are available to seek monetary compensation and ensure disciplinary or criminal action against the officers involved? 4. • When and how can I file an application under Section 91 CrPC to: o Direct the police to produce original documents submitted by my mother (attendance records, teacher statements, etc.) o Summon the police personnel who received those documents and signed the acknowledgment copy. o Call for the police station register/logbook in which my mother and the school peon had signed during the submission of investigation documents. o Any other legal remedy to expose police for indulgent in false case?
