08-Aug-2023 (In Criminal Law)
my brother did his studies in uk during 2012-15 .was working in uae now in india waiting for his visa for qatar. now one of his friend has given a complaint to the police that he has not received 50000rs for purchase of laptop for my brother in uk. 1. can police register a case which has happened in uk? advice
No the police in India cannot register or file a case in India. As the cause of action arose is in UK and not India. Indian police have no jurisdiction and authority over an offence committed in UK. The UK police only can take action against your brother. Or they have to send a letter to India asking the police to file a complaint for which the chances are very low

Dear friend
Indian penal law follows every citizen where ever they be . it has exta territorial application .
But section 188 of the code of criminal procedureandstes obtaining sanction from the central government .
It comes only at the stage of cognizance .
For registration of crime and for completion of ivedtigation sanction is not necessary.
After investigation the entire papers would be submitted to the union government.
The central goverent will thereafter assrtain whether any case is regustered abroad and if the accused had already left that forgiven jurisdiction will sanction prosecution.
The entire exercise will take years to reach that stage .
