Police Investigation Procedures - Police are required to record FIRs, collect evidence, and document statements from witnesses and victims. The admissibility and reliability of evidence such as dying declarations are upheld if recorded by competent authorities like magistrates or police officers, and under proper legal protocols.

Narasimhalu VS State - Karnataka, Usthela Kondaiah, Prakasam Dist. VS State Of A. P. - Andhra Pradesh.

FIR Filing and Case Correlation - Multiple FIRs may be registered for related incidents, but courts analyze the relation between accused and the incidents to determine involvement.

Secy. Home. - Allahabad.

Use of Force and Police Protocols - During protests or incidents involving public disorder, police must adhere to established protocols for the use of force.
