Procedure to File a Criminal Case
Team SoOLEGAL | 01/01/1970

A First Information Report (FIR) is the very first step in the criminal matter in which the facts of the commission of crime is reported to the police by the person who is a witness to the case, victim  or  a person who has a knowledge of the same act done by the accused. The definition of the FIR is provided in the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 which states that “Every information relating to the commission of a cognizable offence, if given orally to an officer in charge of a police station, shall be reduced to writing by him or under his direction, and be read Over to the informant; and every such information, whether given in writing or reduced to writing as aforesaid, shall be signed by the person giving it, and the substance thereof shall be entered in a book to be kept by such officer in such form as the State Government may prescribe in this behalf”.
