You can file the dowry case again stating that you were made to believe that there would be compromise. In addition you can file a case to claim maintenance, domestic violence, etc. If you both have executed a memorandum of understanding then you can also file a cheating case.

the criminal proceedings is different from civil proceedings. your husband had planned to withdraw the case in his favour. you have to contested the case and file additional petitions to contest the case.
