FIR is registered under Sec 489-F PPC. and in your case FIR shall be registered at Islamabad where u had presented the Cheque and Dishonored Slip attached by bank.

It is suggested that after obtaining Dishonour slip from bank u must sent a legal notice to person who issued the cheque and after 15 days proceed for registration of FIR. Police is bound to register the FIR if they failed to do so. Yes of course you can file a Writ under 22A-22-B Cr.PC before Justice of Peace, Islamabad The Court definitely shall direct the concern the SHO for registration of case.
