First Information Report(FIR) is written document prepared by police when they receive information about any criminal offense. It’s generally a complaint lodged by the victim of a cognizable offense or by someone on their behalf and sets the the process of criminal justice in motion.
If a crime has taken place:
Go to the nearest police station. It does not necessarily have to be in the area where the crime has been committed.
You will be directed to the Duty Officer. You can either verbally tell the officer what happened, or write down the details yourself. If you tell the police verbally, then they must write it down.
The Duty Officer will then make an entry in the General Diary or Daily Diary.
If you have a written complaint with you, please carry two copies and give them to the Duty Officer. Both will be stamped and one will be returned to you. The stamp bears a Daily Diary Number or DD No. and is proof that they received your complaint.
Once the police have read it out, if all the details are correct, you can sign the FIR. You have the right to get a copy of the FIR for free. Note the FIR number, date of FIR and the name of the police station. In case you lose your copy, you can use these details to access the FIR online for free.
