Yes, CAW cell can arrest you if your wife has filed a FIR against you.
There is no compulsion for you to accept the unjustified demands of the opposite party.
Better option is to apply for anticipatory bail in case you apprehend arrest in the case.
You can also call me in case you need further advice on this issue.
