If you are called by the police regarding a pending case and you fail to appear without a valid reason, the police may consider you absconding. This can lead to legal consequences, including the issuance of a warrant for your arrest.

I’m a Canadian citizen and have been living here for the past 10 years. I lent ₹5 lakh to a friend in Jaipur two years ago. He’s been making promises to repay but hasn’t done so. Last year, when I visited India, I had him sign an agreement and give me a cheque for the amount. My brother deposited the cheque, but it bounced due to insufficient funds. I sent him a legal notice, but he refused to accept it. I want to file a court case against him. Here are my questions: 1. Can I file a case even though he didn’t receive the notice? (I’m certain his address is correct.) 2. How long do I have to file the case? 3. Can someone file the case on my behalf while I’m in Canada, or do I have to be present in court?

My neighbour’s driver, claiming to have government housing allotment papers, presented a photocopy to the court. The judge accepted it. After checking, I realised the document was forged. I informed the judge, but he refused to act. Is accepting a photocopy or forged document not a crime? Is the judge also complicit, along with the driver and his lawyer? How can this be justified? Should the High Court intervene to clear this mess? I need legal advice.
