Advocate Prashant Kumar answered
If someone is blackmailing you about an extramarital affair and threatening to expose you or harm themselves in front of your family, you can take legal action to protect yourself and handle the situation safely in India. Blackmail is a criminal offense, and such threats—including a threat to commit suicide as coercion—are also treated seriously by lawYou should immediately gather evidence of the blackmail, such as threatening messages, recordings, or emails, and present these to the police.

Q: Duped by Online Music Platform- Dhunguru

I had paid 25,000 Rupees to an online music learning platform called Dhunguru. They delivered only 1 class out of the 25 agreed classes and then stopped paying all the instructors in their company. The instructors stopped taking classes. I got an email 2 months back saying they are facing financial issues and will get back to me in 2 weeks. Its been a long time and they are not responding to any sort of communication. What are my legal options to get my money back? I am situated in Dubai.

Advocate Prashant Kumar answered
Before formal proceedings, send a legal notice (via email and physical mail) to Dhunguru, stating your issue clearly, referencing the agreement, proof of payment, and correspondence. Demand a refund within a specific period (say, 15 days). This can sometimes lead to quicker settlementsSince you paid for a service and did not receive what was promised, you can file a complaint in the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum. This forum addresses issues like deficiency in service and unfair trade practices
