Thank you everyone for your time, I posted all facts as it is keeping only fractional with me to protect my identity! Thank you once again

You are hiding vital facts. Based on given facts only following views can be expressed.

if you are not able to prove allegations against the boy then you are liable to be jailed, if criminal case is filed and liable to pay huge compensation.

If any such case is filed you can fall on his feet and beg for mercy. if civil case is filed for defamation.



not understood what do you mean when Supreme Court5 will give judgement on what issue.

This forum is not spokesperson of Supreme Court. You can consult an astroleger

Since the mail remains the private conversation no case of defamation lies on this basis even if the contents of the e-mail is defamatory.
So rest asuured,no case lies.
Even if any case is registered such cases are hardly proved resulting in conviction of the offender.
Focus on your career than thinking about life of your old flame.

The facts stated do not suggest any cause for concern as no civil or criminal action has been filed against you. It may be that you are not fully honest with the facts.

From the given facts, the no action for defamation lies, either in a civil or a criminal proceedings, as the communication is addressed to the person concerned; no publication was intended nor taken place. Publicity is the basic ingredient in an action for defamation.

Thank you sirs, for helping me with your valuable insights in this case!
Adv. Yogen Kakade (Expert) 11 April 2016
Rightly guided by the experts.

Agree with the expert P. Venu.
Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 11 April 2016
I refer to the workding of the queriest

he said

"I anonymously mailed a girl in my college that her boyfriend had physical relations with girl from my school"

so in this case "X" express ill about "Y" and conveyed it to "Z".

So it is not at all a private conversation.

So defamation action is tenable if he is traced as anonymous sender.

I am sorry if I have disagreed with any expert above.

It is not understood what exactly do you mean by "knowing little that she would sell me out to this guys family."


Better avoid such transactions in future and concentrate on your studies.

If you are honestly posted all the facts, no worry be entertained. But refrain from repeating such acts. You should understand some people are smarter than you and you will be dragged into troubles.
Dr J C Vashista (Expert) 13 April 2016
The query is full of contradictions, prima facie a smart and hypothetical story.
If it is not hypothetical and real one, explain full particulars and facts of the case to a local lawyer for proper analysis, opinion and guidance.

Besides this, your account has already been deleted from this site, you are anonymous and no further reply.
