Sir, My sister-in-law had filed a case against my mother and elder brother (husband) accusing them of 498a case. Later on after 2 weeks she gave an statement to police that she doesn't wanted to continue the case and want to live again peacefully. The police then reported the case to court as 'MISTAKE OF FACT" and got a written statement from BHABI that she had a fight and she filed a 498a Case. later on after 3 months court noticed her for personal appearance. She told the court the same thing that she want to leave again with her husband.Case is closed.
Now after 3-4 months she has again threatened to file a case again .Can my mother file a defamation case against her now????

Obtain copies of all documents thru RTI and show these to your lawyer and decide if defamation can be filed!
