Sec 417 420

Vasanth MS (Querist) 04 June 2023 This query is : Resolved
Sir/Madam,
Had a relationship with a lady. She filed a case saying I have obtained some amount during the relationship time. But I never got any amount. My lawyer said there is no such evidence as she is from poor family, no background to have such huge money to give me and she is well educated and worked as share holder in private company. But judge said how can we expect evidence when both were in relationship, she might given by trust anyhow and no need proof and evidence on such cases.
I don't know how can I prove that i never got money from her (actually never got) and would like to know really no need proof for petitioner for such cases to win her side? Is there any section to save me? please help me mention the section numbers if any.

Quick Summary

A man is accused of cheating under Sections 417 and 420 of the Indian Penal Code, claiming he received money during a past relationship. Despite his assertion that he never received any funds and even provided financial support to the accuser, the court suggested evidence might not be required due to the nature of the relationship. He is seeking advice on how to prove his innocence and whether there are specific legal sections that can help him, as his lawyer's advice has been inconsistent.

Sir/Madam,
To add on, in fact I have given some amount during that period for her survival. But I never mentioned in the court as I thought no evidence for such transactions are useless to defend.

what your lawyer is now saying.

Live in relationship is not a proper relationship hence the trust factor cannot be roped in.
The burden to prove the lending lies on the lender, therefore even if the trial court is ready to accept the fact and passes a verdict against your interest, you may prefer an appeal and get it dismissed

@Sudhir Kumar, every time my lawyer change his opinion, one day he says court may take the relationship might induce her to give money without evidence and another day says evidence is important, she cant just shout for money without evidence. :-(

@T. Kalaiselvan, thanks for your opinion sir. Sure I will go for appeal if needed.
