A case of ipc 420

nishant (Querist) 12 December 2013 This query is : Resolved
Dear sir/madam
My sis was married for the sec time with a divorcee from Australia as per Hindu marriage and subsequently at a court. My sis was pregnant and subjected to verbal and physical abuse. A case was filed in Australia and my bro in law was charged with AVO (aprehended violence order) and is under a period of observation for one year.
My sis in law's in meanwhile have filed a case in India against my parents on 420 based on the following allegations:-
(a) Disclosing wrong DOB of my sis.
(b) Disclosing wrong period of first marriage.
(c) accused my parents of asking money for settling the case.

MY QUESTIONS

(a) Is this not a case of malifide intent?
(b) How do we go ahead with this case?
(c) Can my parents be subjected to judicial custody on the ibid charges?
(d) Since the marriage was registered at Uttranchal and FIR at UP , the place of jurisdiction?
(e) can my parents seek anticipatory bail and subsequent stay? And How?
(f) and How can I get my parents out the Mess, they are old people and certainly did not want either this on themselselves or their daughter
regards

Sir
we were told that both Uttrakhand and UP do not have a provision of anticipatory bail

Yes and that is why you have to apply for quashing where stay on arrest would be given.

file a quashing petition before hc and get arresting stay. collect the evidence in yout favour and fight the case on merit.

where is husband ? is he in australia ? is she australian citizen ? file for divorce in australia . her husband will settle all cases in india too filed through sister in law . basically a counter attack by husband

You can get the case/FIR quashed easily because the 420 complaint has been by irrelevant person (i.e. sis in law)and not her husband, further more, the referred matter are not essential materials to marriage that they claim to have manipulated/or given incorrect details, thus it is better to file a quash petition along with a petition to not to arrest.
