Charge sheet or fir quashing

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 14 October 2024 This query is : Resolved 
A false FIR under Section 498A, 506, and 3/4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act has been filed against me, 600 km away, purely to harass me. There was no incident in that location, but the FIR was still filed there with no evidences. I provided the IO with necessary evidence on her whasapp also she insisted for Mvitamin which i had to give , but she is still not satisfied and is now threatening to include my brother, who lives abroad, and add more sections. The FIR currently names only me and my father.

It has been 23 days since the FIR was lodged, and I am unsure whether to file a petition in the Allahabad High Court for quashing the FIR or wait for the charge sheet to be filed and endure the harassment from the IO in the meantime.

You cannot satisfy the greed of the police officer who in the name of helping you to solve the issue may be demanding more and more.
Hence you may challenge the same in trial court or file a quash petition before high court after the charge sheet is filed

If you are confident that you can challenge the false case in trial proceedings, then you do not have to even file a quash petition to quash the charge sheet
