A false 498a PCR was registered against me and my family with false allegations. Under 156(3), it was referred to a Women's Police Station SHO and a FIR also registered. The IO has probably been bribed heavily and took several steps with malafide intent. Fortunately some of these were documented. We collected enough documentation against the IO, and talked to the Commissioner who directed the DCP to change the IO. No action has been taken by DCP so far.
My questions:
1. Can Commissioner actually change IO when a PCR was filed and FIR later registered? I ask this because magistrate directed case to this specific SHO as IO for investigation.
2. If not, should we go to court and appeal to Magistrate u/s 156(3)?
3. If yes, what can we do about DCP not changing IO?
