Manoj Bansal (Querist) 12 February 2015 This query is : Resolved
Our marriage was placed in some hotel as per hindu customs + gifts . soon after marriage My wife has submitted in her complaint to commissioner office and police station(not converted to FIR) that she has given dowry in the marriage and filed multiple complaints against me like 498a, dv etc. Although we have never demanded any. CAN i file anti dowry case on my wife and her family members. CAN these may file under section 156(3). If yes then HOW, WHERE and WHAT is the punishment she will get and under what section. It must be NOTED that the complaint given in the commissioner office was referred to the women cell and the compromise for divorce has already been made in the women cell regarding this. I and wife has written that we will not pursue or file any fresh case against each other before any authority. I had already Paid 4lakh Rs. as the first installment of for compromise of divorce. Although the compromise was under pressure and 2nd statement for MCD is yet pending.

Unfortunately the court hardly takes congnizance against wife under this law.
However , you should try your luck and file such petition.
