My wife filed a false FIR against me and my father under Sections 498A, 506, and 3/4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act to extort a huge sum of money from me. She has already extorted jewelry from my side. The FIR was registered against me and my father five months ago, and the chargesheet was submitted two months ago, but cognizance has not been taken yet. I have verified this with two advocates. Time is passing, and nothing is moving forward. What should I do? Should I file for FIR quashing on behalf of my father, or should I wait for the chargesheet cognizance, which seems uncertain?
