Complainant not appearing in 498a

Dear experts,

I am fighting a false 498a case from last 2 years and complainant has not appeared for chief examination/cross for the past many hearings. Every time judge issue fresh bailable warrant and police file report with lame execuse like complainant out of station, not well etc.I am sure police is getting good money from oppiste side. I have secured high court orders to dispose off the case in 6 months which is nearing to complete. Please advise what would be best course of action ? Does judge has power to dismiss the case if complainant does appear at all?

You ask the judge in writing to issue NBW against complainaint. If court deny to do so Challange that order in Session court.

@amerdeep, you need to open new topic for appropriate responses.

Lawyers/experts, can someone please advise if lower court judge has the power to dismiss the case due to non-appearence of complainant?

SIR, KINDLY NOTE THAT.

1. YOU MAY FILE A DISCHARGE APPLICATION BEFORE THE SESSIONS COURT HAVING AREA JURISDICTION AS THE COMPLAINANT IS AVOIDING APPEARING BEFORE COURT.COURT WILL ISSUE SUMMONS AND CALL SAY OFSTATE/  POLICE AND ON VERIFYING THE COPIES OF DOCUMENTS PLACED ON RECORD COURT MAY DISCHARGE THE ACCUSED FROMT THE SAID CASE.

2. BUT IF THE ORDER IS NOT IN FAVOUR OF APPLICANT ACCUSED , THEN HE MAY FILE A WRIT PETITIONBEFORE THE HIGH COURT FOR QUASHING THE SAID F.I.R. AND CHARGESHEET AGAINST THE ACCUSED.

YOU WILL SUCCEED. GOOD LUCK.

Dear Sir, thank you very much for your valuable inputs.

Will discharge petition be allowed even after framing of charges is completed in 498a cases?

Also can CrPC 256 can be invoked in my case as complainant is absent for very long time (or) request the judge to close prosecution evidence and proceed with defence evindence and complete the trial.

Request experts to share your views as this may help many false case victims.

Discharge application won’t work here, as you say charges are already framed.

There are 2 scenarios here:-

  1. File application to dismiss the case for the want of witness not appearing despite the multiple warrant.
  2. Pray court to issue non-bailable warrant and impose costs on prosecution as they are not appearing
