Hello,
I got married in the year 2011 and later after the marriage i came to know that the girl is already married prior to marriage with me and without obtaining divorce from the court, the second marriage took place. At that time the girl was on a four month family way. Immediately when my in-laws came to know that I am aware of this face, they took the girl with them. they aborted the pragnancy. On this, i filed a police complaint against all of them which resulted into FIR u/s 494, 495, 420, 312 and 120B of IPC against girl & other four family members.
Now the challan has been moved to court and charges have been framed. At this stage SSP concerned is calling me to his office time & again threatening me dire consequences if compromise not took place between us. SSP is making preasure on me to withdraw the case and to compound the office. He is issuing me "Parwana" from his office to attend him. Now what I have to do? what are my legal rights here? how can i stop infringment of my rights by SSP?

If the case os true then do not withdraw the case.
The SSP seems to have some interest in this case and what is he doing is purely criminal.
Immediately bring this to the notice of his higher authority including the court of law.

Among the sections slapped against the accused only 494 and 420 are compoundable, the rest are not. It is certain that the SSP is hand-in-glove with the accused. If he is pressurising you to withdraw the case it hardly remains to be said that as the police chief of the district he will attempt also to weaken the case against the accused by influencing the IO. Don't fall prey to such misdemeanors. Write to the senior police authorities i.e IG and DGP. The most effective of all the remedies would be to file a writ petition in the HC to seek protection for yourself and also to ensure that the SSP does not influence the trial in any way.
