There was a girl 2-3yrs ago at my workplace. We became frnds through our common frnd.

But somehow to keep her go on her studies I started to being best frnd with her. She was happy.. But after sometime she started behaving as a Girlfriend of mine. I told her that I don't have any feelings for you like the way you r thinking. She started forcing me to get close to help. Anyhow she use to meet me & my frnds.. By false reason.

Advocate Maneesh M. Dixit answered
Your best option is to file a NC with the nearest police station who will call her and counsel her. Its necessary for you to safeguard your reputation and also to demonstrate your bonafide intentions of genuinely helping the girl out. but you should not put up with any harassment for the genuine help that you have given the girl.

He had availed 39 leaves during first half of 2017. There is no communication with him since he resigned & left the company. how can I be accused under IPC setcion 306 with 34??

Advocate Maneesh M. Dixit answered
Exact details of the suicide note will have to be looked into. Merely because name appears in suicide note does not make one guilty. Since suicide notes are many times written in distressed states of mind. Especially in cases of suicide in employment cases involving disgruntled employees. In your case, you can approach a higher forum to come out of the case rather than go through a prolonged trial.

Q: Can the complainant withdraw rape case filed in the criminal court

Before 4 years we had charged a case against a boy.and now my sisters marriage is been fixed and we want to close the case before the marriage.cab we do compramise with them.or what can we do

Advocate Maneesh M. Dixit answered
No. Earlier it was alowed with the High Court's consent under Sec 482 of CrPC. However, Supreme Court judgment in re: Gian Singh's case a few years ago does not allow that anymore. Hence, FIRs/ Complaints in case of henious crimes cannot be 'settled' or 'compromised' with the Accused

Q: False Complaint Of 354, 354A IPC filed on the victim

Dear Sir, Madam, Some society members and me have been falsely implicated by the society's chairmans wife under 354 and 354A IPC . It was a well planned co-ordinated event in which several committee members are also involved . The motive to falsely implicate us was due to several cash embazzelement which we we're going to expose . Also a criminal case was filled against the chairman for assaulting me few months . To protect the chairman his wife implicated us on false grounds. Please advice if we should quash the case or we should proceed with it . Any valuable suggestions are welcome . We have been tormented by such false acts and need proper justice .

Advocate Maneesh M. Dixit answered
Dear sir, it seems a classic case of tit-for-tat. You should definitely consider filing a quashing petition under 482 CrPC before the High Court to get the false and illegal proceedings quashed since clearly they have been filed as an afterthought.

Advocate Maneesh M. Dixit answered
If the FIR is filed and not being proceeded with and both the parties have moved on with their respective lives and there is no other document or witness on record to show demand for dowry, then its a fit case for going to High Court and quashing the FIR altogether.
