498 A false case by sister in law


11-Dec-2024 (In Divorce Law)
My bhabhi has filed a false 498A case on my brother, myself, my sister, my father, and my mother. It was an arranged marriage & for the last 2.7 years they are residing in a different state. Since the seperation we never visited her place & neither she came to ours. Can she still file a 498A case on us. She is threatening us based on call records from a year ago which are my conversations with my brother where he is complaining about their fights & I suggested divorce if can't stay together

Sir, If the conversation held between you and your brother is of such a nature which causes cruelty to your bhabhi then you are liable under section 498A IPC. As per 498A [Whoever, being the husband or the relative of the husband of a woman, subjects such woman to cruelty shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years and shall also be liable to fine. For further query please contact us.

Hi, Sir asked for the question asked by you she has filed a bogus and a false claim of dowry and many judgments in which the family members of the husband has been deleted from the complaint because you’re a distant relative you’re not living with her she just implicated a family member, so yes, you could be out of the case. Please feel free to reach out to us thank you.

Did she filed a case or she is just threatening to fill a case? Both are different things. Solution can only be given if you tell the exact situation. Feel free to contact with exact details. Have to analyse your conversations with your brother for better results

Based upon your information, facts and statements, your bhabhi cannot implead you in the said dowry harassment case but for the we need to first see the complaint she had filed so that we can check what particular allegations she had levelled against you and other family members. Sometimes, it is the police officials who try to falsely implicate innocent person in a criminal case.
