“If the loss is money only, make sure that you have recovered a certain amount of the money before agreeing to tarik balik repot. There is no such thing as pre-signed and post-dated tarik balik reports. You can try statutory declarations, a different item entirely for the right context.”

“Call the IO and ask what you will be charged for, the number of charges and the location of the court. Do not assume that the charge will be under the same section as the section that your were “arrested for”. Sometimes the IO will just tell you to come to the IPD or Balai and not share details with you.”
