Someone got a sim on my name & abused someone

Hello. An unknown person has got a new SIM connection using my name and address and probably ID proof too. He used it to send abusive messages to someone. Now police has asked me about it but they were instantly convinced that I'm not that person. They left and assured me that the culprit will be nabbed soon.

Then I went for registering an FIR but they refused to do that saying its just a small case and will be resolved soon. But I'm worried that I'm still vulnerable in future. What should I do? Should I go to SP office? Will I be able to register an FIR at SP office? How serious the situation is?

Please advice. Thanks.

You may relax now, since the Police have come to know about it. If you are reading various news papers regularly, you may understand that yours is not the first case. Hundreds of sims were sold away by some unscrupulous dealers or agents, by xeroxing one ID paper of a genuine customer. Now that Aadhar has been made compulsory, this problem may come down.
