This query is : Resolved
I were attacked by a mob led by my neighbours in a matter of land related dispute. The neighbours were claiming that I am not owner of the the disputed land. The either sides have filed FIRs on 14-03-2010. The charges against me are that I have destroyed the property of my neighbour and put him under loss by Rs.50000 t0 60000.
I have levelled charges against my neighbours that they had attacked me and beaten me and also threaten me to kill me.
Police had filed the both cases as Chapter Case and send to Mamlatdar in April 2010.
Even after more than 10 months the case is still pending. My queries are as under.
1. Within what time limit a chapter case needs to be disposed off ?
2. The FIR filed against me is not correct. Can I file defamation against the complainant after the outcome of Chapter Case ?
3. Can I become Self Witness in FIR filed by me as I am the only witness and others are willing to join as witness for me due to their safety reasons ?

2 yes you can do so but chances are not much bright according to me
3 yes you can.
