Re: Fir
go to police station and ask them to lodge an FIR
Re: Fir
The FIR may be oral or written. You may write a simple letter to the SHO of the concerned Police Station with a copy to the Superintendent of Police of the District concerned.
You may narrate all the facts / events clearly in a chronological order bringing home the offence and the accused persons, if known to you, involved in the case.

FIR mean First Information Report. The moment any incidence take place you have to lodge police complaint immediately this is known as First Information Report. Based on your complaint police will register your complaint and they will acknowledged on your complaint copy.

Re: Fir
FIR can only be lodged against the offences which are cognizable in nature. Police is obliged under the law to register the complaint made to police officer, in such regrettable eventuality, complaint may be lodged against concerned police officials compelling them to register FIR.
Re: Fir
You can either visit the police station or send written complaint to police.
It is not necessary that is should be on printed format of police.
Letter to police disclosing commission of cognisable offenec/s can be treated as FIR.
