Dear Ld friends,
I want to know that in the compensation case under Sec 357 of Cr.p.C and in defamation case of 499 IPC if any person requisite the amount of claim for the injuries he sustain against offender then Will the claimant have to give the required heavy court fee like in the Civil Suit according to the value of the claim.
Or
The criminal cases don't require court fee so much as in civil suits.
