An FIR (First Information Report) is the first official document registered by the police when a cognizable offence is reported. Filing an FIR is your legal right and is the first step towards initiating a criminal investigation.

Step 1:

Visit the Relevant Police Station Go to the police station that has jurisdiction over the area where the incident occurred.

Step 2: Report the Incident Provide complete and accurate details, including: Date and time of the incident Location Description of what happened Names or descriptions of suspects (if known) Details of any witnesses

Step 3: Provide Supporting Evidence Submit any available evidence such as: CNIC Photos or videos Medical reports Documents Witness information

Step 4: Ensure Your Statement Is Recorded Correctly Read the FIR carefully before signing. Make sure all facts are accurate and nothing important has been omitted.

Step 5: Obtain a Copy of the FIR Ask for a free copy of the registered FIR, including the FIR number, date, and police station details. Keep it for future reference. What If the Police Refuse to Register an FIR? If your FIR is not registered, you may: Submit a written complaint to the Station House Officer (SHO). Approach the Superintendent of Police (SP). File a complaint through your provincial police complaint portal. Seek legal remedies before the competent court if necessary. Note: Providing false information in an FIR is a criminal offence. Always report facts truthfully.
