Telangana High Court on Friday has suggested to the Director General of Police to convene a workshop to train field officers to ensure First Information Reports (FIRs) were issued when citizens lodge complaints about commission of cognisable offences.
A bench of Chief Justice Alok Aradhe and Justice Anil Kumar Jukanti made the suggestion with reference to its direction not being followed in a writ petition.
A resident of Mulkanoor of Karimnagar had recently moved the HC stating that Karimnagar Two Town police were refusing to issue an FIR despite her complaint about a man outraging her modesty. On hearing her plea a few days ago, the bench directed the police to register a case.
