Woman wanted alimony, forged hubby's salary slip

NEW DELHI: A woman found herself on the wrong side of the law when in a bid to get her husband pay the desired alimony she allegedly forged his salary slip. Her attempt, however, fell flat with a trial court ordering registration of FIR against her.

"Considering the facts and circumstances of the present case, I am of the opinion that prima facie commission of cognizable offence is made out and police investigation is necessary for ascertaining the role of the accused in making and filing the forged document in the court of law," Metropolitan Magistrate Manish Khurana said while directing the SHO of Prashant Vihar police station to register an FIR under "appropriate sections of law against the wrongdoer".

The court's order came on a petition filed by the husband, seeking issuance of direction to the police to register an FIR against his wife for submitting forged documents before court. He alleged that while seeking maintenance, his estranged wife filed a doctored salary certificate, which stated that he was earning a gross salary of Rs 52,000 per month.

He claimed that it was forged and that he never worked in the company whose salary certificate was submitted.

His counsel Jagmohan Singh also said that when it was enquired from the company about the issuance of such a salary slip, they were told that he never worked with the company. The court said the woman has committed the serious crime of filing the forged document before the court of law and a police probe is required to find out how she procured, forged and filed the aforesaid certificate.

The court asked the cops to submit a copy of the FIR before court within one week and fixed the matter for hearing for April 17, 2012.

After going through the record, the judge said: "In this case, as per the preliminary enquiry conducted by the police, the impugned salary certificate, which is allegedly filed by the woman, is found forged. Further, she has filed the same in the court of law to obtain the monetary benefit and the police investigation in this case is required to ascertain the role of the accused in making and filing the forged document in the court of law."
