Query about a Defamation matter by ex girl friend


02-Nov-2023 (In Civil Law)
Hi I had a sexual relationship with one of my colleague. My girl friend came to know about it and we had a break up. I had clearly told her that I had affiar with that colleague only. Now my ex gf is reaching out to my other female colleagues and asking them if I had any relationship with them. This is causing problems for me at work. I am not able to work with any of my female colleagues. Can this be considered as defamation? Can I sue her in this case?

The acts of your girlfriend clearly falls within the definition of defamation. She has assassinated your image and caused damage to your reputation. You have two remedies available; Either you can file a civil case and claim damages or file a criminal complaint under 500ipc or do both. In both the cases you will have to find people to testify in your favour.
