Hi Experts,
My brother's wife filed the false 498A against my brother and my family, she couldn't file against me because I stay far from home and don't contact her much. He got married in Nov 2013, She was trying to separate my brother from family from the day she entered into the house. She tried a lot to create a problem between my brother and family. First she and her family targeted my sister saying that they saw her with some guy standing on the bus stop while coming from the college, only to my brother. Second time, she and her family targeted my mother saying that she make her work so much at home. Third time, she and her family targeted my father saying that there is a ghost in a house and my dad is responsible for ghost. Finally, nothing worked out for them so now her family brought some relatives at home with one lawyer and threatened my family for divorce. My family said if they think taking divorce will keep them happy then we don't have problem. Everything was fine for 2-3 days then her lawyer uncle called my brother and said he wants to take her niece to his house and try to make her understand but after few days, she came to our house with 11-12 persons, they pulled my brother out of the house and abusing him. My dad is an ex-army service man and he has a licensed gun, after seeing the people pulling my brother he did the air fire, after some time somebody among those 11-12 persons hit the stone on his car and called the police saying that my father hit towards them. Afterwards they filed the dowry case and attempt to murder for my family. My brother and father is in police custody and don't know about my mother and sister where they are. I am 2500 Km away from them soon I will go home and I won't wonder if they put case against me as well. What best I can do to save me and my family ?

You have to immediately engage a local lawyer so he can apply for bail of the persons who are in custody.
Apply for anticipatory bail for your mother and sister.
You being a immediate family member it would be shameful and cowardly act if you do not go there , search your mother and sister and arrange for their bail.
It would be disgusting to say the least for your failure to do so.

Pulling out his gun by your father to quell the mob at your house is not an ordinary act. It will certainly be an illegal act. Your mother and sister might have gone underground to avoid arrest. It is not that you do not know that, but you pretend as if not knowing about their whereabouts. Rush to place, arrange for bail to your father and brother first. Arrange for AB to your mother and sister immediately thereafter. Locate them and bring them back to your house. Take the help of a local lawyer and proceed.

Engage a Local Lawyer, and defend, is the only remedy...
However, not to worry for false allegations 498A, as Police need to investigate as per Apex court order
