Named in Domestic Violence Case by a Friend's Wife


23-Jan-2025 (In Criminal Law)
My friend and his wife are going through matrimonial dispute. I am in no way involved but I have been named in the FIR filed by her in her native place at Kanpur. My name is not correct in FIR and neither is my address or phone number mentioned, but I believe she does mean my name. So far no one has called me from the police station about this FIR. Do I need to do something about it?

you need to challenge the FIR in court of law about its illegality no one can falsely implicate you in any time of cases you have to collect all the evidence for. challenging the FIR here is not possible to explain everything

Dear Client, In this circumstance, it would be beneficial to consider submitting a Criminal Misuse Writ Petition to the High Court in order to secure an Arrest Stay. If you have any further inquiries, please feel free to schedule a consultation.

if you have been wrongly named in the fir you can file for deleting the charges you can ask your lawyer to approach the police station if no one has called you or if your name is not correctly mentioned your lawyer should check with the opposite party

no, u don't have to pay any heed over such FIR. Your main advantage is that your every detail is wrong, which means you are safe. so just relax and don't contact police or try to give any clarification regarding this ,cut all your cords with you friend.

Hello There, First of All you should confirm this that she named you in FIR. May be she must be talking someone else, whose name resembles as your name, and as of now you should wait, if police call you, you go. other wise let it go, and if when you are sure you should meet IO and ask him to cut your name in chargesheet Thanks And Regards Advocate Alok Mahur Ghaziabad Court
