        My sister works as a doctor in a government college and hospital in Jammu. On the night of February 4th, while she was on duty, a man named Nitin Khokher entered the doctors’ room around 10:30 PM and stole her bag. The entire incident was caught on CCTV footage.

        She immediately reported the theft to the hospital police chowki. The next day, she went to the City Police Station to file an FIR, but instead of helping her, the police tried to discourage her from filing the complaint. They did not provide her with an application number or any official receipt of her complaint.

        Fast forward three days later, the same culprit was caught inside the hospital attempting to steal again. He was handed over to the hospital police chowki and later taken to the City Police Station. However, when my sister went to the station to demand action and retrieve her stolen belongings, the police again refused to register an FIR. No entry was made in their records, and they did not acknowledge her complaint.

        The worst part? Nitin Khokher is a repeat offender, yet he is still roaming freely. Despite clear CCTV evidence and his own confession, the police have done nothing.

        This entire ordeal has been extremely frustrating and disturbing. Not only did my sister have to suffer due to this theft, but she was also harassed by the police for simply asking for justice. If criminals like him can continue stealing without consequences, what hope does a common citizen have?

        If anyone has suggestions on how to escalate this, please let me know. This kind of police negligence should not be tolerated.

          If you have cctv recording then post that on twitter and tag police officials even mention the exact case. Sadly people have to take help of social media to raise such petty issues but that is the reality

            Get a copy of cctv footage as proof of theft and file an online complaint with proof on the email id of police commissioner and ask for investigation if there is no action by the police even then file an interim application with the court u/s 156(3) with proofs to direct police to investigate

              If police in any PS doesn’t take your complaint or registers your statement, you can contact the Police Superintendent or Commissioner of Police in your area. There could be helpline in your locality, search for it. They will take immediate action.
