My family and I were victims of a theft in 2011. The police filed charges against the accused, but the case is moving incredibly slowly. We keep getting delayed court dates because of the accused’s tactics. The Public Prosecutor isn’t being very responsive either. It’s been six years now, and there’s been no real progress. Could you tell me how long these cases usually take and who I should consult for legal advice?

Criminal cases in India can take several years to conclude, especially if the accused employs delaying tactics. You should consult a private lawyer specializing in criminal law to understand your rights and options, including potentially seeking a faster resolution through legal remedies.

Previous Article I bought an Intex Aqua Fish phone from eBay on August 20th. It arrived without an invoice, and unfortunately, it was faulty. I reported the issue on August 23rd, requesting a replacement and invoice. The invoice arrived on the 24th, but no replacement was offered. I took the phone to the service center, but even after two attempts and a PCB change, the defect wasn’t fixed. They refused to replace it, claiming it was a “default” issue. My written complaint went unanswered, and the service center manager was rude, refusing to acknowledge the phone’s problem. He even blamed me, saying I threatened to file an FIR and made unreasonable demands.
