Dear client I suggest you apply for an anticipatory bail. Once the charge sheet is filed you should move a. Application for discharge building a case and attaching proofs of the same. Feel free to get in touch for further discussion

the burden of proof non- guilty is upon accused person once the charge sheet is filed though it is based upon the victim statement charges can be framed. but before framing of charge you can file discharge application stating lack of evidence in victim favour..and showing evidence in your favour. exactly what to write in discharge application and what should be next course of action it is required to discuss your case in detail.
