False allegations of 377 by my wife after 3 yrs and 9 mos of marriage


24-Nov-2023 (In Criminal Law)
Hi sir/ ma'am My wife has lodged a false complaint of section 377 against me stating that I had been doing it consistently against her will for more than 3 years. Also stated that whenever she opposed, I threatened to kill her and marry someone else. She has not even submitted her medical. Also she had a prolonged issue of piles even before marriage as stated by her. Can these charges be framed against me. I am a private job person and the only earning person in my family. This is being done to harass me and my family

Although marital rape remains unrecognised in the country, Section 377 still holds value in cases where women complain of such an act. Charges maybe framed in such a case. This is a Cognizable offence. If the FIR has been filed, you need to immediately apply for anticipatory bail or you will be arrested.

You can first file a counter complaint u/S. 153(3) CrPC, stating the accusations made against you as false and baseless. You can also directly go to court and file for divorce under section 13 of the IPC, but keep in mind that the settlement amount will be quite high.
