Hello

Some Actions are treated as offences under IPC. Cheating is one such and has both criminal and civil remedies.

In order to recover the money, a recovery suit is filed before a Civil Judge.

What we have to do after registering FIR in police station,how many days it will take to file a charge sheet against the cheated couples, and what we have to do thereafter?

Advocate Y.K. Mehrotra (Advocate)     01 May 2022

Once an FIR is registered. The Police will conduct their investigation, framing of charges and then the accused in the presence of a Magistrate will frame the charges and the proceedings will go on.

As for how much time, "it depends" on how swiftly the police prepares its Final Report of the offence. In short, it may take 1 day to even a year or more depending on which State/ city you are in.

But for recovery of money you must have to apply through a RECOVERY SUIT before a civil judge.

The recovery in a criminal case is difficult and you have to explore the possibility of civil remedy also.  By punishing the guilty a victim may get satisfaction and recovery depending on other aspects of such funds available for attachment of the accused property.

It is advisable to consult your tutor / coach / professor since this platform is to help needy litigants and not to impart training or solve problems confronted by students.

There is no time limit prescribed under the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 for completing the investigation of an offence and filing of charge-sheet before Courts except in rape cases. Section 173(1) of Cr. PC provides that every investigation shall be completed without unnecessary delay.

After the registration of a fir, the police will conduct its investigation and submit a chargesheet. The police can also recover tainted money but the criminal proceedings are not meant for the recovery of money. Parallely, you can avail civil remedy by filing a recovery suit against the person who has Cheated you and you can get his property is attached before judgement under the provision of order 38 rule 5 of CPC and the copy of a fire should be annexed along with the said civil suit.

The civil court shall grant an immediate order in your favour and The property of the accused shall be attached by the court so that if your money is to be recovered then the same can be done expeditiously by the civil court.

This remedy may not be known to many lawyers but it works like charm.
