Hi,
I have booked a photographer for wedding purpose paid 5000 in cash advance later paid 20,000 on marriage now after taking the soft copy of photographs,
The studio is closed for more than 2 weeks neighbours say he has cheated,duped many persons including bank and on the run,I didbn't receive the album or video
Delhi police is more of an harrasment to victim than accused,
Pls advice

Police alone can offer help, legally. In the given facts, it is not worth approaching a Court of Law, esp. when the person has disappeared.

Lodge police complaint and police may trace.

You can try filing direct complaint with magistrate.
However, your claim is less than the money and time you would be spending in court with uncertain results. It would not be a viable route.
You can get the album prepared from soft copy.

You have to visit the local PS and lodge written complaint.
Sending letter will not do.

Lodge police complaint, try to locate him and help the police.
If police fails to initiate action move to area Magistrate with complaint u/s 200 r/w 156 Cr PC.
