Satvinder Kaur vs State (Govt. Of N.C.T. Of Delhi) And Anr on 5 October, 1999

In Satvinder Kaur's case (supra) relied upon by learned State Public Prosecutor the Hon'ble Apex Court after referring to Section 482, 156, 177, 178 and 154 of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973 was pleased to observe that FIR cannot be quashed on grounds that police station did not have territorial jurisdiction to investigate the offence. Police officer cannot refuse to record FIR and/or investigate for want of territorial jurisdiction. Thus a bare reading of the said judgment prima facie go to show that a police station projecting the reason that it lacks the territorial jurisdiction cannot refuse to record FIR and it also cannot refuse to investigate the case for want of territorial jurisdiction.
