Onus on the plaintiff

Hello,

As a plaintiff, I have filed an FIR two years back regarding a case of chain theft u/s 379. The culprits haven't been nabbed yet and I am unnecessarily dragged in the district court's procedure. I have been issued court notice to attend the hearing when the fact is that I still do not know who is the Investigation officer.

My agenda is that being from a service class sector, I do not have the time to visit the court premises for mere fill -in- the- blanks procedure. As per my understanding, the criminal cases FIR cannot be withdrawn once lodged. Under such a case what is the probable option left for me. I do not want to attend the court's hearing.

when accuased are not found you need not appear before the court.  Only after arresting the culprits and filing of charge sheet you will have to attend the court for your evidence.
