INDTRODUCTION
There are three stages in a criminal justice system, they are Investigation, Inquiry
and Trial. The first and foremost stage is the stage of Investigation. For
investigation to kick start there should be some crime, any act which is punishable
under the Indian Penal Code or any other legal statute as passed by the Indian
Parliament shall be termed as Crime. The term Investigation has been defined
under Section 2 (h) of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC),1973 as
“Investigation” includes all the proceedings under this Code for the collection of
evidence conducted by a police officer or by any person (other than a Magistrate)
who is authorised by a Magistrate in this behalf.
The essential elements of investigation under this provision are:
1. It must be in the form of a process and not merely one act such as
recording the complaint.
2. The intention of investigation should be to collect evidence.
3. Investigation can be conducted by Police or a private person but not by a
Magistrate
