Hello FIR filed u/s 279 and 338 IPC is a criminal offence and you will have to face the trial, statement given by the accused that it was not your filed can help you in evidence and trial of case to prove your innocence however as you paid for the hospital expenses it will help you in the MACT claim case although it was your insurance company who should have paid for expenses, you will have to prove innocence and no fault before criminal court and MACT court, I suggest you to engage legal counsel and face the trial to prove innocence and no fault.
