Baseless Police Complaint

Police do investigation and if found guilty they will refer to the Court. In petty complaints they try to counsel both parties. if one party is arrogant, police file a case and refer it to the court. On record it is always a complaint if the complainent doesn't withdraw the complaint. Police do not issue any type of letter regarding action taken against accused. Only court decides on the basis of evidence.

Police will not give u direct chit stating that there was a false complaint filed against u. However to get said kind of reply u may make an application under RTI and ask them

a.  whether any complaint is received agaisnt u in police station.

b.  Whether police have taken any steps in relation to said complaint?

I hope this goes with u r queery . In case if u wish to know more than please feel free to send me email on ramesh_chheda@yahoo.co.uk

In some states like Kerala, there is a separate petition register kept by Police to record the brief of the case, final findings and signature of both the parties. If such a register exist in your PS get a copy of the same by utilizing RTI Act.

Otherwise General Diary may have a reference regarding the complaint and decisions thereafter.  You can get the extract of the diary by giving an application for the same.
