Hi,
I would like to know if DV can be filed against mother and sister of husband who are not living in the same household?
DV was filed in 2010 in the police station but not pursued in the court of law, but none of us were informed of that and in fact we only came to know about it this week when I have sent an RTI application for information regarding a fake arrest
What should we do now?
Regards

Thank you, but we neither have the knowledge of DV case untill about a week ago nor did we receive summons from the court?
What should be done?

Dv can be filed against mother and sister of husband . the issue as to whether any case is made out can be ascertained only after going through the complaint .
engage a local lawyer . court will send the case for mediation to try working out an amicable settlement

If you have not received any summon from the court, you need not to attend the court.
