I got a call from the Crime Branch in Ahmedabad. I live in Vapi. The officer called from his personal number and asked me to come to Ahmedabad tomorrow at 1 pm (Sunday). When I asked who filed the complaint against me, he refused to tell me and just insisted I come to Ahmedabad. It’s a 7-hour journey from my home. Should I go?

It’s unwise to travel to Ahmedabad based solely on a phone call. Under Indian law, you have the right to know the reason for the investigation and the identity of the complainant. Seek legal advice from a lawyer in your area and verify the officer’s identity and the legitimacy of the call before traveling.

My sister was tragically killed in October 2008 for dowry by her in-laws. The Sessions court sentenced her husband and mother-in-law to 10 years in prison in 2010. But within six months, the High Court granted bail to her mother-in-law and a year later, her husband’s sentence was suspended. Now, despite filing our appeal for life imprisonment five years ago, the hearing hasn’t even started. Our lawyer, a junior advocate, advises waiting another 2-3 years before the hearing begins. Is this a fair system? How can we expedite the hearing in the High Court and get justice for my sister?

I fell deeply in love with a girl, and we were together for five years. Recently, she vanished without a trace. It’s been over two months, and I’ve tried everything to contact her. To my shock, I learned she got married. My heart is shattered, and I can’t focus on anything. We were intimate, believing we’d be together forever. She borrowed Rs. 40,000 from me five months ago. I feel betrayed and like my love was used. I don’t want to harass her, but can I do anything about this situation?

Dear Team, Thank you for your advice. My wife filed a false dowry harassment case (498a) against me and my family. We had reached a settlement before our elders and both parties signed the agreement. However, she later accused me of dowry demands and assault, prompting the police to file an FIR. We’ve been attending court for a year now, but she hasn’t shown up for her testimony, and neither has the police. What happens next if they continue to be absent? How long will this case take to resolve? Is there a way to close this false case? This situation has caused me to lose my job. Can I file a case against my wife for this? Sincerely, [Your Name]

My sister-in-law filed a false dowry harassment case (498A) against me, my husband, and my mother-in-law. Her mother claimed we assaulted her, which is completely untrue. I was at work during the time mentioned in the police report. I have a letter from my company confirming my presence at work. I also have my attendance records showing my login and logout times. Can I sue her father, brother, and mother for defamation if I manage to get the case dismissed?
