F.I.R. Investigation & Trial

F.I.R. Investigation & Trial by Dr. Manish Kumar Chaubey offers a practical and detailed study of the criminal justice process in India, beginning with the registration of a First Information Report and extending to the conduct of trial before a criminal court. The book explains the legal significance of the FIR as the foundation of criminal investigation and highlights the responsibilities of police authorities during the investigative stage.

The author carefully discusses procedures such as recording statements, collecting evidence, search and seizure, arrest, custodial interrogation, and preparation of the charge sheet. Each stage of investigation is explained in light of statutory provisions and important judicial precedents. The book also emphasizes the rights of victims and accused persons, ensuring that investigation is conducted within the framework of constitutional safeguards and procedural fairness.

In addition to investigative procedures, the text explains trial stages including framing of charges, examination of witnesses, appreciation of evidence, and delivery of judgment. Practical examples and case law references help readers understand how criminal cases progress through the justice system.

Written in clear language, this book is particularly valuable for police officers, prosecutors, defence lawyers, and law students. It bridges the gap between theory and practice by presenting a step‑by‑step understanding of FIR registration, investigation techniques, and criminal trial procedures in India.
