Please note, without concrete proof, police can not lodge FIR against anyone. The opposite party might have filed some complaint against you and your friend/known person. Before lodging the FIR, police conducts investigation / enquiry. On the basis of said enquiry / investigation, the investigating officer will take decision of lodging of FIR or closure of the complaint. Therefore, first of all please check from the police officer about the nature of complaint. Consult an advocate of your choice (you can take our number from Lawrato) and learn about your rights in the police station and then go to police station to meet the investigation officer with proper legal guidance.

Hello sir ,
By going through your query i guess they drag you inbetween just to grab money from you but do tell me clearly if you have given any gurantee on behalf of some person to any other person or not if yes then then can file case against you as well . Now the question is why they put your name in between . You just need to enquire this from the I.O of the case but with the help of the Advocate only . As you are wrongly involved or they put your name with wrong intention . Dont go without Advocate because you may say something which is not in your favor . I am just trusting your words and suggestiong you . Till the investigation get over be carefull as something can go against you . Hope you have not given any gurantee on behalf of any one .
You can come to my office so that we can talk on this so that i can suggest you better . You may get something fruitfull i am sure
