Yes, you have the option to approach the court if the police has not concluded the investigation of your FIR within a reasonable time. The Supreme Court has held that the police must complete the investigation of a case within a maximum of two months. In your case, the police have not concluded the investigation in 1.5 years. You can file a petition in the court under Section 156(3) CrPC seeking a direction to the police to complete the investigation and file a charge sheet. For further enquiry contact us.
