My brother worked with my uncle for 15 years. He recently returned home, and shortly after, my uncle tragically took his own life, leaving a note mentioning our family. Two months before his death, we had a financial settlement with my uncle, documented in an agreement witnessed by prominent figures in our town. The police investigated thoroughly, confirming our absence from his home and any contact with him in the period between the agreement and his passing. Even the City DSP visited and concluded our innocence. Despite being cleared by the police, we remain concerned about the future, as an FIR has been filed against us. We haven’t sought any legal protection. What steps should we take to ensure our safety and handle this sensitive situation?
