My mother was sent to jail in 2002 for abusing a man who is sc/st. The case went on for a year and it got a judgement in 2003 where my mother was found innocent. We did not know at that time that we could file and claim penalty/ compensation/damages from the person who had put false criminal case against my mother. Our lawyer itself did not give us this information about claiming hence we did not know.Is there a way where we can file a suit to punish that man now or is the time limit over??
