If the FIR is registered against you and the family I strongly recommend you to file anticipatory bail application without any delay. Meanwhile collect all the evidence and proofs to support your statements and file Quash petition in High Court. Addressing to the fake photographs, if your ex-wife submits photographs as evidence in court then you can request court to get CFSL analysis of the photographs. CFSL report will show the genuinity of the photographs. Stay Safe.
