The criminal complaint pending in the court need to be dissimised and if an amicable agreement between parties reached in dowry criminal complaint case, the best way is to move the High Court by both parties for quashing the FIR/Criminal Complaint under section 482 CrPC along with the copy of their agreement. An advocate can be engaged by both parties who can move the application in the High Court on their behalf with their power of attorney and get appropriate order for quashing the FIR/criminal complaint.

1. Section 498A of IPC is non compoundable for which it can not be withdrawn by the wife.

 

2. The standard procedure to get rid of this type of problem is that the wife shall have to affirm under affidavit that she had lodged the said complaint u/s498A of IPC out of domestic rage and has not got the matter settled long back and living happily with her husband without any problem.

 

3. The copy of the said affidavit shall have to be submitted before the IO for his submitting before the trial court.

 

4. Thereafter the husband shall have to file a petition before the High Court u/s482 of Cr.P.C. praying for quashing the FIR based on the affidavit affirmed by his wife as suggested above.

 

5. At that time his wife shall have to be present before the Court to depose in favour of her husband, if asked by the Court.

Thank you for your valuable reposne. case is still running in court. and court is sending summons every 2 months.

Further, both parties are not planning to come India. in this case i have following questions.  

1. is it possible that wife send affidavite from foreign country and i submit in court?

2. how do i stop summons from court?    

brother of wife is in India. is he able to close this case?

Complaint under a non compoundable offence can be withdrawn.     Whether it's compoundable or non compoundable offence, the leave of the Court is, unlike in Civil Procedure Code, necessary.
