I started dating a woman, only to find out she was married and going through a divorce. She borrowed 80,000 rupees from me and took some belongings from my place. She even tried to hurt me! The police suggested settling things quietly because she could file various cases against me. I have all the bank and purchase records showing I paid for everything. Now she’s refusing to return the money and has taken all my things. What should I do?

A club secretary in India was accused under Section 135 of the Electricity Act, 2003. The club cleared all charges, and the case was compounded. The special court discharged the secretary. Now, he’s applying for a government job and needs to fill out a police verification form. Should he mention this case, which wasn’t personally against him? Could this past case, despite the discharge, affect his chances of getting the government job? There was no arrest or detention.

If someone is accused of cheating under Section 420 of the Indian Penal Code, what’s the harshest punishment they could face? Let’s say the case involves property fraud. The accused took money as “Amanat” (trust) and returned it upon request, with a notarized receipt on stamped paper. But the complainant is denying receiving the money, claiming the receipt is just for show. Can they deny a notarized receipt? Also, if someone sold a property for ₹8 lakhs and registered it in the sale deed, could they later claim it was sold for ₹26 lakhs to file a false FIR under Section 420 without any evidence?

My husband beat me up terribly, leaving me with serious injuries on my face and neck. My family convinced me to forgive him, and he begged for another chance. But after a month, he started hitting me again and even kicked me out of our home. I want to report him to the police but I’m worried because I don’t have any medical records. I did manage to take some pictures of my injuries on my phone. Can those pictures help me get justice and put him behind bars?

My son was engaged a year ago. The girl’s father asked for my bank account details and sent money as a token of good fortune for my son. He continued sending money after the engagement. However, we later realized there were cultural differences and the girl’s education qualifications (she holds a B.Ed degree) didn’t match what we expected. My son also dislikes her due to her behavior. His father now refuses to return the money and is threatening to file a dowry case and resort to local intimidation if the marriage doesn’t go ahead. Feeling pressured, I agreed to a wedding date of April 22nd, 2016. What should I do now?

Hello, I recently bought a bottle of scotch (750ml) in Karnataka and was driving to Tamil Nadu. I was not intoxicated while driving, but a police officer stopped me at the border and took my driving license. He said I need to appear in court to get it back after paying a fine. I’ve already paid INR 3,000 and been released on bail. I work at a software company in Bangalore and my company is applying for a US visa for me. Will this incident impact the background check by the US embassy during visa stamping?

## Legal Matters in Family Disputes: An Indian Perspective1. My father, who has a mandate over my NRI account, issued cheques that bounced. Am I, as the account holder, legally liable?2. My father issued a cheque that bounced three times due to insufficient funds. He then issued another cheque, taking the first one back, but this one also bounced because he stopped payment. Would this fall under sections 138 or 420 of the Indian Penal Code?3. After months of issuing cheques, I instructed my bank to cancel the mandate on my NRI account. What legal action can be taken against me?4. My father, who is accused in a criminal case, has been absconding since the beginning. He is residing abroad and has been issued multiple non-bailable warrants. Can he approach the High Court seeking a stay under section 482 of the CrPC?5. My father, as A1, issued cheques on my NRE account (A2) in a criminal case under sections 420 and 506 (b). I have been absconding since the case started. Can the judge issue a warrant for my arrest?
