Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

I was director of the co. op. bank and in 2002 i found fraud in the bank and i made a complain of said fraud in 2002. after three years in 2005 in the pressure of big people police had converted me as an accuse for delayed payment of my loan which i had already fully paid in 2003 and bank had also issued no due certificate in 2003 for same. This way police has ignored all facts that loan had been already paid up in 2003 and arresting me for that in 2005 for same.

At the court case at the stage of charge sheet only. Charge frame not done. I have applied for discharge also. Meanwhile Honest police officer realized this in justice to me and he want to order further investigation to find my above real fact. can he do further or reinvestigation order while case at chargesheet stage?

In One word my question is: can police officer order further or reinvesting even after the charge sheet done in the interest of justice or he has remain no power to do same after charge sheet.

Case is open yet. and chrge frame not done.

Pl. reply in the interest of justice at earliest.

Thanking in advance
