Q: can fir be withdrawn by complainant ?

I have filed an FIR against my husband for harassment and dowry. I wanted to withdraw the case, but again my husband hit me, and I called the police immediately. They kept him in custody for 24 hours, after which he is now behaving properly. However, the case will go to court. The police advised me to compromise in court, submit an affidavit, and withdraw the case, as this will be documented for the future. Kindly advise me on this—can FIR be withdrawn by complainant?

Advocate Narendra MN answered
Once you register an FIR, it becomes an offence against the State, and therefore, FIR can be withdrawn only under specific legal provisions. Your options are:

1. Can the FIR be withdrawn before the chargesheet? If the chargesheet has not been filed, you and your husband can approach the High Court for quashing the FIR by mutual consent.
2. If the chargesheet has been filed, then you can either become hostile before the court or opt for legal remedies. However, becoming hostile might lead to complications, so quashing the FIR through the High Court is a safer option.

Until and unless a person has absolute right or title over the property he can’t execute WILL in favour of anyone.. If your father has done that then you can challenge the same in jurisdictional Court of law.

Q: Buyer invested in an under developed layout & owner delaying work

Our family had invested 4 Lakh rs on site, in an under development layout, from a person in the town. We went for deal through a known person. Seller/owner said development will be completed and site will be registered soon. Even after years he did not develop the layout. Everytime we call/meet and ask, he used to say will complete in month or so.. but never did any progress. after few years we argued that our money could have got better interest, if invested somewhere else, then he gave an updated document of the property agreement showing 7.5 Lakhs invested (additional amount as interest given). And said to wait for some more time for layout development. Even then he did not progress with layout and he died. Later the responsibility of layout was taken over by his brother. It is been 3-4 years, again the new person also continued saying will complete soon. But not making any progress, neither giving the money. It was hard earned money. Please suggest how we can get this issue solved.

Advocate Narendra MN answered
Issue a Legal notice through a Lawyer demanding the legal representative of the developer to either give site or return your money along with interest. If he neglects or refuse to respond positively then you can file a consumer complaint
