The Supreme Court has ruled that trial courts cannot directly entertain complaints seeking police investigation of cognisable offences. Before approaching a court, individuals must first seek FIR registration with the jurisdictional police. Magistrates should direct informants to approach the officer-in-charge and then the Superintendent of Police before considering applications under Section 156(3) of the CrPC.
