Hi Viha,
To address your query:
- **Section * of the Indian Penal Code** pertains to the failure to attend or produce a document in obedience to a summons or order from a public servant. However, in the context of your query, the relevant section would be more aligned with the principles of jurisdiction under the Criminal Procedure Code.
- **Jurisdiction Principles**:
- The place where the crime was committed (Aligarh).
- The place where the victim died (AIIMS, Delhi).
- The place where the FIR was filed (Hauz Khas, Delhi).
Given that the crime (shooting) occurred in Aligarh, primary jurisdiction lies there. However, since the victim died in Delhi, Hauz Khas police station also has jurisdiction to investigate, as per Section * of the Criminal Procedure Code.
