Hi,Even if he quit his job still you have right to file criminal case against him as he benefited from you with forged documents. If police refuse to file FIR you can approach a lawyer to file a complaint in court to direct police to file FIR.

As you have already filed for the complaint before the police station, the police will investigate the matter and file the charge Sheet. He will be prosecuted for the offence of forgery.
If they haven't registered an FIR, you can file the complaint before the court.

Dear air/Madam,
After filing complaint if police have not take any action, you have only option that you can file Private complaint before Jurisdictional magistrate Court to refer the case for proper investigation to police station or request to court to take cognizance on your complaint.
