Hi, generally 354 IPC do not go with 498A but it is not practically impossible. 498a is against husband and his family members. So if the husband's brother outrages the modesty of wife then the section attracts. Need to see the FIR for more advice.

Hi..
As per ur query, i can only say that police can lodge a FIR under sections 498A and 354.
It is upto u how you manage to escape from the charges of both the sections at the time of charge on arguments.

Hi,
Both the sections are different and generally not seen in the combination of each other but this is kaliyug and anything is possible with corruption or lack of knowledge/bribery. How from your query the complete facts are not known and please elaborate the case, then correct legal advice would be possible.
