Request for Legal Assistance Regarding False Allegation and Defamation


30-Oct-2024 (In Criminal Law)
I am a university student, currently in my 3rd year, and my ex-roommate who is a Muslim has made a false allegation that I was drinking during Ramzan, which I was not, and he claims that he has made a recording of it and gave it to the warden. What do I do? Any help, please.

This appears to be a college-related issue involving students. It is advisable to address the matter at the college level first, with the support of lecturers and staff. If the issue persists, you have the right to file a case under Section 499 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). Defamation occurs when a person makes an imputation with the intention of harming another's reputation.
