6 As per Section 195 of the Code, no Court shall take cognizance of any offence punishable under Sections 172 to 188 (both inclusive) of IPC except on the complaint in writing of that Court or by such officer of the Court as that Court may authorize in writing in this behalf, or of some other Court to which that Court is subordinate.
In the present case, proceedings against the petitioner under Section 188 of IPC have been initiated on the basis of F.I.R. and not on the basis of any complaint in writing of the public servant concerned as it required under Section 195 (1) (a) of the Code. However, Section 195 of the Code specifically provides that proceedings under Section 188 of IPC can only be initiated on the basis of complaint made in writing by the public servant concerned to the Court. The police has no power to register a case for the offence under Section 188 of IPC and investigate the matter. The registration of FIR for the offence under Section 188 of IPC is not permitted by the Code."
