You should file a criminal complaint and domestic violence complaint through your lawyer before appropriate judicial magistrate court. You have constitutional rights to file and contest your case before court, if you have well known about related acts. It is your choice.

Hello. If you are being beaten abused and threatened with your person or property at the hands of your husband and in laws you may file a case of Domestic violence against them before the court and the court will ask for the probationer officers report in this regard but before filing the case it is advisable as it is clear from your question that the police has not given receipt of your complaint and in this case you should send a written complaint to the police station concerned by registered post and make a mention of the same in your complaint before the court. I would not advise you to file your case yourself if you are not a competent lawyer as you can't handle your case more professionally and legally. .....Regards.

well from your description ill assume that you are the wife and you want to file the complaint against your husbands family, if you had written the application to the police, you should go to them again and get your copy of the complaint, if they refuse to provide you with a copy and refuse to register an FIR, you can write a letter to the SSP asking that the concerned police station should file a complaint.
you can also approach the women police station and get an FIR registered under DV act and also under section 498 A IPC.
if the police refuse to file a complaint then you can approach the CJM to file a complaint under section 156(3) Cr.Pc, if you approach CJM it would be advisable to hire a lawyer for proper guidance.

Dear Client,
As per your query you are looking out for the procedure to be followed in domestic violence cases. There might be chances that you are being subjected to the domestic violence because of the demand of dowry.
So presuming the same here is what you need to do
1) You can immediately lodge a police complaint u/s498A of IPC against your husband and inlaws for subjecting you to cruelty for dowry. After filing this complaint, your husband & inlaws will run around and spend considerable amount of money to get bail,
2. You can then file DV case asking for residential right, maintenance (if you are unemployed), protection etc.,
In case of any other legal advice feel free to contact.
