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 girlfriend, a Brahmin, and I, a Khandayat, had a serious relationship where we shared intimate moments. She promised to marry me, but now, both she and her family have changed their mind.

My brother’s wife’s brother has a Scheduled Caste certificate, though our family belongs to the Naicker caste, which isn’t listed in the Karnataka Gazette. He’s lived rent-free on our land for two decades, in a separate house on our compound. Now he’s claiming a share of the property. After we refused, he filed a caste-based humiliation case against my brothers at the local police station. We’re unable to evict him as there’s no rental agreement.

Our neighbour in Bangalore, a teacher, hit our child four years ago while we were away. When we confronted her, she verbally abused us and denied the incident. She continued to harass us, locking our door, throwing our maid’s belongings, and even recording our reactions to her abuse. We filed complaints at the local police station, but no FIR was registered. Her daughter, older than our son, bullied him at school, pushing him off the bus and forcing him to eat suspicious chocolates. We were terrified and had to transfer our son to another school. Concerned for other children, we informed the teacher’s school about her history of violence, without revealing our identity. Now, she threatens to use our complaint as evidence against us in court. We are worried she will try to harm our child again, especially if she joins his current school. Please advise us on how to protect our family from further harassment.
