Someone is claiming I bought something from them, but I never signed anything. My name isn’t on any invoices, and the bill has another person’s name. I only paid through my bank account. Is it possible for them to file a fraud case against me under sections 120, 420, and 406 of the IPC without proof of purchase? I’m not fluent in English, so please explain it clearly.

Based on Indian laws, it is unlikely for someone to file a fraud case against you under sections 120, 420, and 406 IPC without proof of purchase. These sections require evidence of a criminal conspiracy, cheating, or criminal breach of trust, which is difficult to prove without evidence of a transaction in your name.

My father filed a false case against my brother and me last year in November. The FIR accused us of driving our mother to suicide, even though she passed away at my elder sister’s place, and I wasn’t even home for the past two days. My father was manipulated by some relatives into filing the case, but now he’s realized his mistake. He withdrew the case and admitted his guilt in Barasat Court. After two hearings, the case was dismissed there. However, my lawyer says a copy of the case was submitted to Barrackpore Court, and the proceedings are ongoing there for almost a year. I’m confused, as the High Court dismissed the case, why is it still going on in Barrackpore? We’re not fighting the case anymore, it’s just about getting it officially closed. What should I do?

Previous Article I worked for a cash management company for two years, joining on May 29, 2014 and leaving on May 22, 2016. I didn’t serve my notice period, but received my full and final settlement after three months. I filled out all required PF forms, like Form 19, and submitted the necessary documents. My manager assured me I’d receive my PF within 120 days, but it’s been four months and I haven’t received it yet. When I inquired with HR, they said the manager hadn’t sent my PF documents. Now, I’m considering legal action against the manager and the company. What should I do?

His second wife (my mother-in-law) has five sons and three daughters. She is still alive.
