My wife has filed IPC 498a, DV and dowry related cases against me (Yr. 2010). I was arrested, but out on bail. After two years she filed a DV case against my family members, although my family members did not have any contact with her as my wife did not wanted to maintain any relationship with them. (I am currently out of India.)
Current situation:
The court has issued an order in our favor in DV related case against me and my family members, awaiting for the decree. We have filed a civil case against her for the forgery of property documents and for selling that property with out my consent. I was repaying the loan.
We have lodged a formal police complaint against my wife in a civil matter, related to a property. However the police officer refused to take any action against her citing that, she has the authority to sell the house. We had consulted couple of lawyers on the PoA which I had issue to my wife for taking the possession of the property and for facilitating the payment through my NRE account on which I had given her the mandate. I also have details of money withdrawals (almost every second day) through ATM's, by my wife for personal expenses. All the withdrawal ATMs are located in the vicinity of her stay, as I was abroad.
We have now approached the High Court for this civil matter, as the police officer refused to take any action against her. One good news is, the police office who refused to take any action against my wife, was recently caught by anti corruption bureau for taking bribe and extortion.
Just yesterday, one of my family member got a call from someone, who claimed to be an officer from vigilance (new Delhi).....who was trying to get information about my whereabouts. However they were skeptical about his identity as he did not sound like he was from vigilance due to his apologetic and panicky conversation. In the past, we had received a letter from someone, who claimed to know my wife and was mentioning about supporting us.
The 498a case will not start until I return back to India....probably the court might issue a arrest warrant again me, I am not concerned about that. I have one life and I want to live it in a positive and fruitful way. There are so many good things to do in life than to waste life in such matters...however I am a victim and want to get rid of this issue at the earliest for a peaceful and meaningful life ahead.
I would appreciate if experts on this panel can share their opinion or views,
1. Is there a role for vigilance to plays in these kind of cases?
If "NO" then is it advisable to file a police complaint giving the details of the number.
And
If "YES", what should be the course of action? Its a matter of concern to me, although I have reasons to believe that this call was not from vigilance and I don't know of anything that I have done for the vigilance to call at my relative's place ( I am not a terrorist, not have I been involved in any kind of corruption).
2. Can I file a counter case against her for filing false DV case at this juncture?
I would really appreciate your feedback.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
