Q: Bank account freeze by cyber crime, How to unfreeze bank account cyber crime?

My bank account has been frozen by cyber crime authorities in Hyderabad for the past two years, even though there are no fraudulent transactions matching their claims.

I was a victim of cyber fraud, where I sold Bitcoin to a buyer who unknowingly paid me using a hacked online recharge account. As a result, my account remains frozen, and I am unable to access my funds.

1. How can I unfreeze my bank account in such a situation?
2. What is the process for filing an application to lift the freeze on my account?

If your bank account is frozen, follow these steps:

✅ Step 1: Visit Your Bank Branch

• Request the exact reason for the freeze.

• Submit a formal application for unfreezing your bank account, along with:
  • KYC documents (Aadhaar, PAN, etc.)
  • Transaction proof (Bitcoin sale records, email communications, bank statements)
  • Any supporting evidence to prove your innocence

• A bank official may help expedite the process.

Advocate Rajesh Xavier answered
1.filing for RCR won't serve the purpose as one cannot force her spouse to stay with her.2. wife who refuses to stay with her husband without sufficient cause Is not entitled to maintenance3.A husband can now seek a divorce from his wife if she restricts him from fulfilling duties towards aged parents, a new Supreme Court judgement maintained.4.in a Hindu society, it is a pious obligation of the son to maintain the parents. If a wife makes an attempt to deviate from the normal practice and normal custom of the society, she must have some justifiable reason for that.3. you can file for divorce after period of 1 year
