03-Oct-2025 (In Criminal Law)
Hi - I am just an evidence in an agreement to sell of my father in law who owns property in chandigarh.There has been a fallout of the agreement and the buyer filed an FIR both against my father in law and me under Section 420 due to which a case has been going on in lower court,the lower court has now dismissed the discharge application. What remedy do I have since I am just a witness and no other proof of financial transaction has been found against me ,neither I own any part of the property.

You can file a Revision Petition under Section 397 read with Section 401 CrPC before the Sessions Court or the High Court. The revision challenges the legality, correctness, or propriety of the order rejecting the discharge.

File a Criminal Revision/482 Petition before the Punjab & Haryana High Court challenging the order rejecting your discharge and seeking quashing of proceedings against you. File a Criminal Revision or 482 Petition before the Hon’ble Punjab & Haryana High Court at Chandigarh, highlighting That you were only a witness; That there is no financial trail or inducement on your part; That continuation of proceedings against you would amount to harassment. If the High Court finds merit, it can quash the FIR and subsequent proceedings against you, while allowing the case to continue against your father-in-law if there is prima facie material.
