Adv Jaishree Patil, who was asked about her locus by another bench yesterday, said she approached the Malabar Hill Police Station.

CJ- So an FIR was registered?

AG- No. I first want to rely on an SC judgement to explain. 

Nanakani tries to speak about the apprehension of getting justice 

CJ Datta- Justice is a long way. 

States that first, there is an FIR then a charge-sheet... 

The Court, however, states that the investigation has to be done by investigating agency. 

CJ Datta- Why has no FIR been lodged by anybody?

Nanakani - The Court can monitor the investigation. 

CJ Datta - Tom if a prime minister or the Home Minister is involved, who will investigate? You want a super power from outside to investigate? 

CJ Datta- The investigation triggered by an FIR.   

If the home minister or the CM may be involved, we can't set aside provisions of CrPC. 

CJ Datta- The magistrate can inquire himself. When you want an investigation, FIR is the first step.
