Hello, Expert,
Because, that woman is my own sister and that guy has crossed all the limits of tolerance. And we tried a lot to stop all these nonsenses but locally we can't get any help because of the influence of his well known contacts. That's why I am asking for your advice, cause we don't know what to do now, simply we are helpless. That is the way I am related to this query.

Respected Experts,
As per your advices, Recently she flied an F.I.R against above mentioned guy and police arrested him. But He got bail for his power. Now he is presenting wrong facts and evidences. As I mentioned he is an advocates and has political power that's why the situation becomes more n more worse. She is totally helpless. Almost, local and legal powers are well known to him and he is getting advantage from them. Now He is spreading more vulgar rumours about her and everyone says that the actual guilt is she and he is totally innocent. And the higher authorities force her to take the case back immediately, otherwise she will be murdered or threatened to get her life and her family at risk. She has complained to The women's commission also but nothing helps her. Before this case, he has ruined a life of an another woman too.
Please, advice, what to do. The situation becomes more risky and intolerable.

No body is above law. A firm stand would fetch results.
She can meet higher police officials.

You have posted that the woman is your own sister.
If the said higher police officials are also biased, then meet highest police officials upto DGP, involve media, and engage a senior counsel.

Respected, Experts,
Police(the I.O) asks us for witnesses. But the guy threats all of the witnesses. Not sure if there is no witness then what to do? The guy and his family threat our family too. It becomes life risk for us. Infact, for us it becomes difficult to step out from home. The situation becomes more worse after lodging the F.I.R. please, advice us what to do and what not to do? How to involve media in this matter?

Respected, Experts,
I am from west Bengal. Seeking a legal advice for my sister. According to your adviced,
I filed the F.I.R on the ground of harassment (physically and mentally), defamation and I.T act. But the accused person got bail by ₹2000 bound with the condition of twice a week appearance and on the ground to the fault of I/O because who was below the rank of I.C. The accused person is an advocate and has strong political power that's why everyone is biased and supporting him including bar council and police station. He is continuing his offence and it becomes more worse. He is entertaining the police and other lawyers by showing false photos and false facts about the girl. But it shocking for us, the Police has not asked us for any evidence against him and any investigation has not happened still now for us. We consultanted with a lawyer, but now I come to know that he is also biased and influenced by the accused person and politics. Now I have not find any lawyer who will be supporting for us. I went to some higher authorities as you adviced but it seems they are also biased. Now what to do? Please suggest me, we are helpless. The legal system is trying to prove that the matter of the fact is too light by showing that my sister is psycho and also pointing out the character of the girl. They are trying to resist us from taking the case to the court for trial.
