Can dowry case be filled after engagement of the couple


27-Oct-2023 (In Criminal Law)
Engagement has happened and we have given 2.5 lacs in cash and were agreed on giving 2.5 lac more in cash and 3 lacs deposit in the name of girl. But now they want all the money in cash and 2 lacs more. As only few weeks left for marriage and so boy's party is threatening of cancellation of marriage. Can we file a dowry case on them as the family is so ridiculous and we are unable to fulfill their demand. If marriage breaks up, we would be at heavy loss.

we have readout your query very carefully, Engagement ho chuki hai , aur aapne 2.5 lacs de diye hai , lekin ab aur money chate hai , wo apko damki be dete hai ki aap ni dege to shadi cencel bi kar dege . aapse wo phone ke jariye yadi bolte hai to aap unlogo ki recording kar sakte ho , police me case kar sakte hai , jisse apke sare pese wapis mil jayege .kyoki dowry lna kanooni aapradh hai.

Report the matter to police and file case of dowry, cheating , breach of trust, fraud etc. Monetary loss is always better than loss of life.
