This query is : Resolved
I want to punish my ex wife and her family for filing false 498A and Domestic Violence complaint against me and my family. My ex wife and I reside in USA, already divorce as of Dec 2018, but her father filed false 498A and DV complaint with CAW Cell in Delhi. We filed rebuttal and the complaint is closed by investigating office. I have tremendous grudge and want to punish my ex wife and her family. Please advise.

Dear Sir,
If your divorce legally happened in India then you have to challenge both such proceedings before High Court and get quash the same then you can file defamatory cases against her.

Admittedly, the matter did not reach the Courts. The Police had closed the matter after investigation. Let the matter rest there.
