Since,You are having a Jurisdiction issue and FIR. Is Not being filed, in such a case you should approach the High court filing a Writ petition to solve your problem. This way you can get the clear idea of jurisdiction as well as ,the FIR will also be filed by the direction of the High Court

Speak to the Joint Commissioner of Police for the respected jurisdiction and convey your written grievances to him and request him to direct the concerned police station for registration of F.I.R if he also doesn't do. then you may approach court u/s 156(3).
