Quashing a false 498A

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 08 September 2010 This query is : Resolved
Hi,

My wife filed a false 498A against me on 28th Sept, 2009.

We married on 27th Feb, 2009. With in six months of our marriage, she has done the legal terrorism.

I was working in Bangalore. Because of recession in the global market, I lost my job. My wife immediately filed a false 498A, against me at her home town (under Jurisdiction), my parents, my sisters and brother-in-laws which in total “7” members. She filed 8 cases(DVC, section 2 and 3 of dowry prohibition act etc) against all 7 members to extort money. We all got AB from high court. Now the case is under trail in the lower court.

Fortunately, we all have strong evidence regarding the date of offense (28th Sept, 2009) which shows Me and my family were not at their home town. I would like to go for Quash on the false FIR filed on us.
Please guide me how to get rid of this extortion rocket. Will the high court consider my evidences for Quashing?

you may get the quashing done provided there is abuse of process of law. SC has laid the law in this regard. since the FIR/ Complaint is not available here its better to visit some HC lawyer who will be able to assess the scope of quashing in your case.
