Hello Experts ,
This is a case of my cousin
She got married in 2012. but her husband is a IMPOTENT person
After she came to know the fact, she got separated from her husband and also due to few disputes My cousin filed a 498(a) case against her husband and In- laws ( they were misguided by police as her father-in-law is also a Police ) --- it was not intentional but police created like that.
later as they are not getting any justice the Girl's parents filed a 420 case as that family cheated in the name of marriage.
498 (A) case is on trails ( cross examination of witness-1 i.e Wife is completed )
420 case -- got stay from Andhra Pradesh HC as they went for quash ( is getting stay means possibility of getting quashed )
For more than a year 420 case is on stay and the stay is extending furthur.
recently , the HC Lawyer of the accused requested the court to club the 420 case with 498(A) case as the contents of both cases are same.
HC stayed the proceedings on 498(A ) as well along with 420. and the stay has been extending from the past 2 months .
Does this stay means possibility of Quash of both the cases ? ( they did not file for quash of 498 (A))
Is there possibility of Quashing 420 as the stay has been extending fron an year ?
