FIR done u/s 279, 337 and no action taken by Police till date


20-May-2023 (In Motor Accident Law)
Hi I met with an accident in Karnataka with another car. No life loss, no injury only vehicles damaged. The opposite guy was drunk and came to wrong lane. I did not speak kannada and did not understand what was happening the next day at police station. Police came and gave me a chargesheet with section 279 and 337. They asked me to come to court and pay fine but no hearing date came from court in 3 months time. I called the police many times and they asked me to wait. However, I got transferred to another state in east India where I am from and then I have even moved abroad. My phone number changed also, the police does not have my number. Probably they tried to contact me but couldn't. How can I close this case? Should I worry? Should I transfer this to the state where my parents are and ask them to pay fine and close it?

If you are coming to India you may get advance the case and get it closed by paying fine. Secondly you sign vakalath/power to your advocate and ask him to plead on your bahalf and close it by paying fine. Pl send copies of charge for accurate advise.
