Mumbai Traffic Police — No information given on my fire + suspect corruption

A stupid careless rash driver banged my car Arey Signal ( below fly over) by jumping his red signal and not listening to my horn. After the incident he gave me a stupid reason that the school boys who were seated in his car were in a hurry so they told him to go fast. Date of incident- 10th April-17

I registered the FIR ( ATTACHED) with Vanrai Police station ( Goregoan highway)who was initially not willing to register the case. They did not give me a copy of FIR reasoning they dint have xerox machine. I took a pic of the FIR on my mobile ( attached).

When i asked what action would be taken against the driver, they initially told me that they would impose the applicable fine of Rs 3300/- on him . But the driver dint have the money so they told him they would keep him in lock up till fine is paid . The driver contacted his owner and reported that the owner was out of town and cannot be available. the police later told me that they would keep the car with documents and release the car once the fine is paid. The keys were handed over to police.

The next morning i again went to the police station to get a copy of te FIR. I was again told to come after 1100 hrs. Now this is harassment. How can u expect an office goer to leave his job and keep coming to the police station at inconvenient hours as per their convenience. Why dont they have a provision of providing copies of FIR lodged in their police station. Is this digital India??

I also saw the driver car missing in the police compound. On asking the constable he told me that the car was released. When i asked i wanted to see the receipt of the fine paid by the driver, he got uncomfortable and told me call up his Kishori Mane Madam ( mob- [protected]). I tried calling but no response.

I seriously suspect CORRUPTION. They have taken bribe and released the car.

I would like to know
Why police station is not equipped to provide me a copy of my FIR.
Why does the police always discourage you from filing FIR reasoning not my area.
Why cant the police give me clear information/STATUS of the final outcome of my FIR.
Why should i not beleive that they have accepted bribe and released the car.??

Name of the constable is Mr Sawant of Vanrai Police Station
