How to save myself from arrest under 498A when I land in India


22-Mar-2023 (In Divorce Law)
I live in US and I got married in India. My wife/her family has been harassing me to either leave my parents/do all assets in my wife’s name to continue marriage or divorce with lump sum alimony. When I didn't agree , she hired a lawyer to intim(idate me but could not succeed. Then she destroyed/stole all my personal property, and fled to India, I filed a case (US) of vandalism and i recently won the case. In India they have filed complaint and FIR is registered, my father is appearing till now and IO is sayin that they will process a LOC and RCN. I want to go India but afraid of getting arrested. Can i file a bail from here and then go to India. Please advise

Sir, the best way forward is to apply to the concerned court having jurisdiction for anticipatory bail. Once the court allows your application and grants you anticipatory bail you may come without problems into India and join investigation

Ya sure you can apply foe the anticipatory bail in the court of law
Secondly if they had already registeres a FIR against you then kindly share the FIR number and time period of FIR and in which section she filed with the name of police station in which FIR is loged

You can get the anticipatory bail from you district court before you come to india. If you wil get bail order from court of law no police will arrest to you while you reach in India. So abhage a lawyer and apply for anticipatory bail.

You need to file the Anticipatory Bail in Session Court even if the IO is processing the Look Out Circular and RCN, but kindly advise what type of complaint is this, 498A Domestic Violance will attract different gravity and its required to have detailed compaint report.
