It is a legal document prepared by the Department of Police which consists of the name and address of the person filing the report, type of crime committed, the time, date and place where the incident happened and details about what happened during the assault. Lying on the document is strictly prohibited and anyone lying on the report will be punished according to the Pakistan Penal Code.
