defamation

suryagaurav (Querist) 15 May 2011 This query is : Resolved
There is a consumer case filed against my concern in which I was earlier a manager.
In that case applicant prayed for his disputed amount. (that is fine as it is his right).
But in his application he write about me that I have abused him and threatened him , and sent Police personnel to him many times(all things are totally incorrect and without any proof /evidence, and without any relevancy to the case).
Can I have any legal remedy, like compensation for defamation, available.
what is the process to initiate cases under civil and criminal laws.
pls guide.

You have the legal remedy, like compensation for defamation only if complaint is going to be dismissed and all the allegations Proved Wrong against you.

you cannot file a defamation but you can sue for malicious prosecution provided all charges against you have been disproved
