How many times an IO can be changed?
How many times can an Investigating Officer (IO) be changed in a criminal case by any party, if an ASP-level IO is involved? In a case filed by Company A against the employees of Company B, Company A has requested a change of the IO four times already. How can we stop this, and what is the legal limit for requesting an IO change according to Rajasthan police law?
Sir, in relation to criminal investigations, there is no fixed number of times an Investigating Officer can be changed by any party but you can stop the repeated changes by filing a petition in court and arguing that it is disrupting the investigation. The court can intervene if it finds that the frequent changes are unjustified or causing delays. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
