A month ago, I got a message from Indeed about a job interview at GMR. The message told me to contact a number. I called the number, and the person said they would arrange a phone interview because the actual interview was in Delhi. Being a fresher, I was excited and had the interview a few days later. Thankfully, I got selected and received the joining letter. However, they then asked me to pay 20,000 rupees as a joining fee. I know it was silly of me to do it, but I paid. Now, all their numbers are switched off. I went to the police station to file an FIR, but they took the complaint without actually registering it. When I pressed them, they said an FIR couldn’t be filed.

You have a strong case for a police complaint. The “joining fee” is a clear indicator of a scam, and the police are obligated to investigate. You should insist on an FIR being filed and contact a lawyer to assist in pursuing legal action against the fraudsters.

My father filed a false case against my brother and me last year in November. The FIR accused us of driving our mother to suicide, even though she passed away at my elder sister’s place, and I wasn’t even home for the past two days. My father was manipulated by some relatives into filing the case, but now he’s realized his mistake. He withdrew the case and admitted his guilt in Barasat Court. After two hearings, the case was dismissed there. However, my lawyer says a copy of the case was submitted to Barrackpore Court, and the proceedings are ongoing there for almost a year. I’m confused, as the High Court dismissed the case, why is it still going on in Barrackpore? We’re not fighting the case anymore, it’s just about getting it officially closed. What should I do?

I’m a 26-year-old Delhi resident, and recently got caught drinking in public. The police took me to a government hospital for a medico-legal case, and the alcohol reading was 14/7070. They took my ID and filed a case. The police said I’d be informed about court appearances, but I’m unsure what charges they’re preparing. I’m also applying for Australian immigration. Will this case affect my application? I’m very worried, can you please advise?

My brother was caught drinking with a friend outside two days ago. The police charged him under sections 107/151 and he was released on bail the next day. Is this a valid action by the police? Can I challenge this? Can we get the bail revoked? What would be the costs and time involved in pursuing a higher court appeal?

I was wrongly handcuffed by Punjab Police during a dowry case in January 2010. This was recorded in the Daily Diary Report. The investigating officer admitted to this under oath in court in June 2015, but couldn’t explain why. I filed a complaint in the Punjab & Haryana High Court in November 2015, but it was dismissed due to a time limit. However, I read in the Times of India that the Supreme Court allowed a similar complaint against Bihar Police involving a Navy officer who was illegally handcuffed. The Patna High Court initially dismissed it due to the time limit, but the Supreme Court issued a notice stating that there’s no time limit for such cases. Could you please share the details or case number of that Supreme Court case so I can file my own complaint? Thank you.

My family was falsely accused under Section 379 and a FIR was registered at the police station. Despite evidence showing the case was fabricated, the investigating officer (IO) only submitted a report stating it was false and didn’t include charges under sections 182 or 211, as we requested. This delay and manipulation led to a court taking cognizance against my family after 4 months. We filed a review petition with the District Judge and an RTI seeking information from the Superintendent of Police. After this, the SHO assigned another IO to investigate the case under 182/211, but the court rejected the report. Now, the court is reviewing the case while taking cognizance of the matter. What can we do to ensure justice and are there any relevant case references to support our claim?
