Section 204 of the CrPC deals with an issue of processes if, in the opinion of a magistrate, there is sufficient ground for proceeding against a person. The magistrate then shall issue a summons for securing the attendance of the accused.
A private complaint against Shah Rukh was filed by a man named Jitendra Solanki. Solanki had moved the court after the police refused to take his complaint and register an FIR against Khan.
The complainant has claimed that the incident took place because of the negligence of King Khan. Earlier, Deputy Superintendent of Police (Western Railway) Tarun Barot had also claimed that SRK may be booked for negligence under the IPC section 304a2 (causing death due to negligence) along with the sections of the Railway Act for creating a stampede.
