Booked under Rajasthan Prevention of Defacement of Property Act, 2006


02-Jan-2026 (In Criminal Law)
A police officer visited outside our house after seeing our business flex board (Business Name, Address, Contact and Services) tied to a pole and ordered its removal, threatening legal action. Despite other similar boards nearby, we were targeted. The next day, police photographed the board, filed an FIR, and booked my wife under the Rajasthan Prevention of Defacement of Property Act, 2006. My wife is afraid of this action by the cop, what should we do?

Your wife has been booked under the Rajasthan Prevention of Defacement of Property Act, which is generally a bailable offence. There is no need to panic. First, ensure that the flex board has been removed to avoid further complications. Secondly, your wife can apply for bail (if not already done), which is usually granted easily in such matters. If the action by police is arbitrary or selective, you may also challenge the FIR or seek quashing before the High Court. I can guide you step-by-step and assist in handling the case properly. You may connect with me for detailed consultation.
