Now, you will have to contest the said case, as the FIR has been lodged, the criminal law has been set in motion, now as the incident which took place does not involve any kind of offence as simply breaking the promise to marry is not an offence as such. However, the allegation which the opposite party has made against you, if are false then the case will be dismissed and then you will have to file a case for malicious prosecution.
