My wife, also a lawyer, has filed a series of cases against me and my family. She’s used 498-A, 125 Cr.P.C., DV, and most recently, 494 and 114 IPC. However, her complaint lacks crucial details like dates, times, and locations. She only provided birth certificates with my name and a supposed second wife’s, but nothing else. The Supreme Court has ruled that proving a 494 offense requires evidence of marriage ceremonies. Given this lack of evidence, can I file a case under sections 209 and 211 IPC against her for false accusations?

You can potentially file a case under sections 209 and 211 IPC against your wife for false accusations. The lack of crucial details and evidence, especially regarding the marriage ceremony for the 494 offense, strengthens your case. However, it’s crucial to consult with a lawyer to assess your specific situation and discuss the legal strategy moving forward.
