Last week, my mom got trapped in a cyber fraud where she did two UPI transaction of 50k each to a person who claimed to be an army guy on 99acres where we were renting our flat in Mumbai.
I’ve registered complaint on cyber portal by calling 1930 and I see around 60k is on hold for now.
I approached my family lawyer who mentioned that along with the compliant, we need an FIR to get the court order. So I approached the nearest police station but they are not filing FIR and claiming that it’s not needed for a court order. They mentioned that courts in Mumbai need an FIR but the Kalyan/ulhasnagar courts(,Mumbai suburb) issue court order without an FIR. Also, he connected me to another lawyer who said the same thing(FIR not needed for court order). I am very confused now coz my family lawyer told me to get it done from this other lawyer whom I am meeting today.
Just want some advice from lawyers here or people who were in similar situations. Is an FIR mandatory? Also what’s the nominal fee of a lawyer for such cases to get a court order?
