Can the complainant in fir be framed as accused

Hi Amita, Do u have any substantial evidence regarding this?If u have u can on the basis of evidence u can initiate criminal proceedings by lodging FIR....or else let investigation complete and prove your case in court....till then u can find more material to substantiate your stand..

When the police is investigating the matter, all you can do is to disclose the relevant facts. It is not unusual that the informant, after due investigation, is found to be the wrong-doer.

Thanks a lot for the response, sir. Much appreciated.

Just one question : Can the acused submit the relevant evidence along with a written application to the IO ?

 

Thanks again.

There is no need to submit the evidence by writing application to IO, just produce it for endorsement in his/ her investigation.

You can get a Cross-FIR lodged on the basis of such an information, if it is substantive and can be proved.

• You can register a separate FIR against the complainant u/s 154 of CrPC and if the police do not register your FIR you can file a private complaint to the magistrate who can further direct police to conduct an investigation under section 156(3). 
• If you do not wish to file a separate FIR you may collect all the relevant information against the complainant and submit them as evidence in the trial.
• However, it is advisable to file a separate FIR to keep your case strong as the FIR will have a certain evidentiary value that may benefit you in the trial.

The accused in his written statement can give these things agaisnt the complaint on him.

Besides, he can also give a counter complaint based on the information in hand against the complainant and register a FIR from his side.

There is no possibility for the complainant to be made as an accused in the same complaint given by the complainant against the accused.
