Hi, I would defend you as your side there was no problem as you mentioned (On FB) the truth that the lady was married and has kids. But the married lady marked your boy friend wrongly as 'married' which is criminal defamation u/s 499,500 of IPC and 66A of IT Act. For more info, you may discuss with me on this.

Both are at fault..The issues raised by you relates to cyber law particularly opening fake Face book account etc with the sole intention of defaming the said person. It is definitely punishable offence under section 66 of the Information Technology Act read with Indian penal Code.
