Frivolous and false FIR and travel restrictions for a NRI
19-Feb-2023 (In Divorce Law)
One of my cousins who is newly married is now embroiled in a matrimonial dispute. His wife, an unscrupulous woman has filed a bogus and frivolous FIR with heinous charges of dowry, illegal termination of pregnancy etc and restricted my cousin return travel to Singapore where he is employed. He is unable to join his organization even after a lapse of 30 days as he had to surrender his passport. The girl is indulging in dilatory tactics to delay mediation as she does not intend to go back to Singapore . How can he get the travel restrictions removed and rejoin work ?
If you have evidence that the allegations levelled against your cousin are false then you can on one hand file a Petition under Section 482 of Cr.P.C/ Article 226 of the Constitution before the Hon'ble High Court for quashing the entire proceeding arising out of the FIR and further you can prefer an Application under Section 340 of Cr.P.C against the lady for levelling false and frivolous FIR in the court where the matter is pending. However it is advisable to proceed under the above mentioned section only if you have some substantial evidence in your hand.
