Defamation case for society issues


12-Sep-2023 (In Civil Law)
I live in a row house society. Three of my neighbors had arguments with me and my wife out side our house entrance. They used bad language and even threatened me. They were shouting very loudly and few of our other neighbors came out to see their tamasha. Everything is recorded in my CCTV. We had even filed a police complaint and local police registered a NC for this. Now I want to know, based on CCTV footage, Can I file a defamation case against these 3 neighbors?

Yes you can file a Defamation Case. Moreover you can lodge a case under the other concerned sections of IPC. You can lodge a Private Criminal Complaint too before the Magistrate to book your neighbors. For detailed consultation kindly connect .

Yes you can but within six months..but persons who were there and friendly to you must give evidence on your behalf... because cctv doesn't record voice unless such recording systems in installed... file complaint with minute details.
