appealed in the Supreme Court against the order of the High Court, where the High Court had
quashed the FIR filed at Delhi Police Station by the complainant. The Supreme Court held that,
Police can investigate the case, which does not fall under their jurisdiction. In the case o(Bimla
Rawal and Ors v State NCT of Delhi and Anr), FIR was lodged in Delhi, despite the fact that all
incidents occurred in Mumbai. Writ Petition was filed in Supreme Court regarding the mala fide
intentions of police succumbing under the pressure of opposite party. Supreme Court quashed

the power of filing a Zero FIR at the behest of the opposite party.
CONCLUSION
The Zero F.LR. looks like a great concept in seeking a way to ameliorate criminal justice in a
preliminary stage and deciding on the gulp of truth. But s requires the third eye to monitor the
procedure. For such purpose, a better option is if a committee simultaneously supervising the
process that will include at least an ordinary citizen and scrutinizing the whole FIR instituting
process is instituted. It is believed if you have to control a system you have to be inside the
system because if you are outside, the concept of privity comes into the scene.
