I gave ₹1 lakh to a fellow government employee who promised me a job. He was in touch for a while, but now his number is unreachable. Should I file a case against him or try to find him? If I file a case, what legal options do I have? I have call recordings of our conversations. Any advice on how to proceed?

You can file a case against him under sections 420 (cheating) and 406 (criminal breach of trust) of the Indian Penal Code. The call recordings can serve as evidence. You should consult a lawyer to file a formal complaint and pursue legal action.

My classmate had a crush on me during our second year, but I wasn’t interested. He gifted me a guitar on my birthday, which I accepted. Now, in our final year, he’s demanding the guitar back. He stormed into class, yelled at me, and used abusive language. When I tried to defend myself, he grabbed my hand so forcefully I sustained a muscle injury. My institute isn’t doing much about it. What can I do? Would the Mahila Aayog help, and if so, what action would they take?

We recently got interim bail from the Sessions Court in a case related to a false complaint filed by the owner. They claim we didn’t submit the collected amount, but we have WhatsApp and audio evidence proving otherwise. After the interim bail, the police transferred the case to the Economic Offences Wing. They refused to accept an indemnity bond for our passport and directed us to the Economic Offences Wing. We need to know the chances of getting anticipatory bail and where to submit the documents.

The court has allowed our application. We’ve been granted interim relief, meaning if we’re arrested, we can be released on a surety bond of ₹15,000 each and a personal recognizance bond of the same amount. We’ve also been asked to appear at the police station whenever the investigating officer needs us, with written notice. What should we do next?
