Defamation against cbi

Dear Lawyers,

My friend was arrested for a cbi case and was in judicial custody for 90 days later was released on bail as there was no chargesheet filed for him. the newspaper and media spoke a lot of bad things about him and are evident till date as in if you google the name you can see wrong and bad news against him. He was working for MNC and lost his job. His marriage was fixed and it broke due to this case. He and his family has gone through a lot of sufferings. few years back he approached the court and took the surety back. The court gave back the bail amount. however the case is still going on for other accuseds and they are out on bail. I have few questions....
Can he file a Defamation case? if Yes then it should be filed against whom?
how much would be the court fee and expenses.
should he wait till the aquittal of other accuseds or can he go ahead with the defamation.
how much compensation can he ask for?
waiting eagerly for help.....

Sir, 

 

You can file but at the same time there are certain exceptions to defemation .... Yes recently Hon'Ble Supreme Court has held that a police officer can be punished for filing false cases ...
