Ex girlfriend blackmailing and threatening for suicide
21-Aug-2023 (In Criminal Law)
I was in a relationship with a girl and we brokeup. Now I am getting married but the girl is threatening me of defamation and that she will commit suicide. She doesn't want to marry me but only creating an issue. She has mental issues and I have sufficient proofs of it. The only problem is she has pictures of a fight with me (only she is visible) where she was both of us were injured. But only her injuries are there in the pictures. She is blackmailing for more than a year. I have call records which prove that she is threatening falsely. She has already started defaming me on social media by messaging relatives. Should I apply for anticipatory bail? What will be the consequences if I do so?
Hi....as a final once you have a word with him you ask her what exactly she wants from you and also convey her that all the words used by her can prosecute her for defamation and then also if she repeat the same you can go for bail.
Thank you

You file a complaint against her for threatening and defaming in social networks on her first. If you think she is going to file any case the procure all the said documents as evidence then you can take anticipatory bail and fight the case to prove your innocence.

You can issue a legal notice and you can file a complaint in cyber police station or directly in court, as only because you had relationship with her it does not give her right to blackmail or torture you, so issue legal notice and also file a criminal complaint in order to stop it.

Hi, please lodge a police complaint giving the facts of she threatening you of committing suicide. Let the police handle the matter and investigate the facts of the case. In case you come under the problem of arrest, then you may file for an anticipatory bail and go underground till you get the bail.

In a situation where an ex-girlfriend is blackmailing and threatening suicide, it's crucial to take immediate action to address the issue and ensure the safety and well-being of all parties involved. Here are some steps to consider:
- Contact Law Enforcement: If you believe that your ex-girlfriend is in immediate danger of harming herself, contact your local law enforcement authorities immediately. Provide them with all the relevant information about the threats and blackmail.
- Gather Evidence: Document any evidence of the threats and blackmail, such as text messages, emails, voicemails, or other forms of communication. These may be important in any potential legal proceedings.
- Speak to a Legal Professional: Consult with a criminal defense attorney or a legal professional who specializes in such cases. They can provide guidance on how to handle the situation legally and protect your rights.
- Consider a Restraining Order: If necessary, you may explore obtaining a restraining order or protection order against your ex-girlfriend. This can help establish a legal barrier to prevent further contact or harassment.
- Support and Encourage Help: Encourage your ex-girlfriend to seek help and support for any mental health issues she may be experiencing. Provide information about local mental health resources, hotlines, or crisis intervention services.
- Maintain Distance: While it's important to encourage help, ensure that you maintain a safe distance and prioritize your own safety and well-being as well.
- Inform Trusted Individuals: Let close friends or family members know about the situation so that they can provide support and assistance if needed.
- Avoid Engaging in Blackmail: Refrain from engaging in any form of blackmail or coercion in response to the threats. Focus on legal and appropriate ways to address the situation.
