Hi, My 13 year old niece has accused her own father of sexual harassment. And her mother is the complainant. The father is booked under pocso act. Now the mother wants to take the case back. Could you please guide us what is the procedure for taking this case back or quashing it. Many Thanks

as it is a non cognizable case you cannot withdraw and only option you have is to quash the case by approaching High Court on compromise but it is difficult to quash it depends upon the complaint and charge sheet
