A person filed a complaint about my father's tenure was that he(father) had done some misappropriation during his tenure. Of which he made some about 11 allegations. Of which only 3 allegation are approved by the Block Officers in enquiry as because of clerical mistakes and due to some other reasons. Meanwhile he published some defamatory matter in 2 newspapers by 5 times.With complaint he filed his affidevit too (in which he had mentioned that if any of the above stated fact prove wrong than i am liable to be prosecuted u/s 182 of IPC).After getting the notice we already submitted 96301rs.in the govt. fund.. Is our deafamtion case is maintable as per 499,500,501 of IPC. Because he published defamatory matters in newspapers in between the inquiry in which he alleged for the duping of 63lakhs on my father. Can we succeed in filing the def. case against him on the account of other 8 allegation which remains false in the enquiry.(Note-The complainant was also a Punch during the tenure of my father as a surpunch, and in the early 2 years he had signed the proceeding book before the whole panchayat. Proceeding book is that record of which he made the complaint.In some matters he signed the regulations of which he now made complaint)
