Where the complaint u/s 498a can be filed at the place where offence if any may have taken place or at native place of the complainant. Following is the background for this query I have filed a divorce petition against my wife under cruelity and she has filed a complaint u/s 498a at her home town which is nearly 500 kms away and she has mentioned the name of all my family members including my uncle and aunts who are not living with us except a dog from my house. Can I request the court to transfer the case to my town which is a fake case we have received anticipatory bail from the court.
