Dear Sir, I need some clarity regarding Section 482 of the CrPC. My husband is accused in a case, but the police have removed him from the chargesheet they submitted to the court. My lawyer suggested filing a Section 482 petition in the Punjab and Chandigarh High Court to challenge this. Can you please explain if a reinvestigation ordered by the court would be truly unbiased? Also, could you clarify when I should file a Section 482 petition – before, after, or even after the chargesheet is presented in the Sessions Court? Thank you for your time.

Under Section 482 of CrPC, the High Court can intervene in criminal proceedings if there is a miscarriage of justice. While the court aims for impartiality in ordering reinvestigation, perceived bias is a concern. A Section 482 petition can be filed before, after the chargesheet is filed, or even after it is presented in the Sessions Court, depending on the specific facts and legal arguments.

My girlfriend and I are deeply in love, but our families belong to different castes. My father is vehemently opposed to our relationship and is threatening my girlfriend’s parents with dire consequences, even going so far as to threaten suicide, blaming them for his actions. This is completely unacceptable, and I firmly believe that caste should have no place in our lives. I’m desperate for guidance on how to shield my girlfriend and her family from these threats and protect them from my father’s actions.

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?

Can I lodge a complaint against them even though I don’t have any specific case number yet?
