@Parbhakar (M) 9958670740 - "she mentions that she put efforts for reunion after his filing of RCR/divorce. If this fact comes either in FIR and / or in Section 161 statements, the defence counsel certainly ask her about the details in the cross examination and she will reply there. If he does not ask questions, the complainant / prosecution will take the benefit. In my next part, I deal with the question of how questions would be framed by defence advocate and how the complainant has to respond."
If the 498A case is genuine, then what is the need for you to deal with the questions here? The complainant knows better on how to answer the questions on her own, if she has gone through a certain phase. Does this not mean that you are training the 498A terrorists in such an open public forum?
@Parbhakar (M) 9958670740 - "As per Cr.P.C., the time period to file Section 498-A case is 3 years from the date of last offence. But the Courts have been holding that the cruel acts of such nature have continuous in nature and hence, limitation provision shall not apply. But delayed FIR has got its adversities. "
