I had been commited to my girl for the past 6 years, we were s*xually bonded as well and I have numerous evidences for intimate rellationship we shared like gynaecologist reports. I have numerous videos wherein she promises to marry me. Now on account of her fathers words she has dumped me and is planning to marry according to here fathers will. Her father being shameless, even after knowing all this, he cares only about caste. It may sound funny. But I always felt she is my wife and I am emotionally troubled to the point of suicide. When the law can save woman , why doesnt it hold good for men? Can I do something about this legally?
I read sections 415 and 417, it has no gender disparity mentioned in it...so is it atleast possible to file a case against the girl's family?
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CASE :
It amounts to cheating not rape
In another case the petitioner had s*xual intercourse with the victim girl several times on false promise of marriage and she became pregnant. She informed her parents, and got Panchyat held on 30.7.1984 where again the petitioner gave false assurance that he would marry the girl. But when her parents requested him to marry her, he and the other accused persons abused girl and her parents and assaulted them with fists and slaps and chased and drove them inside their own house.
Relying on Jayanti Rani Panda case Hon’ble Justice Ram Nandan Prasad, of Patna High Court held that “though on the facts of the case, an offence of rape is not made out, it is obvious that by holding out the false promise of marriage the petitioner fraudulently induced the complainant to have s*xual intercourse with him and but for this false promise she would not have consented to have s*xual intercourse with him. The act of the petitioner, therefore, amounts to cheating as defined in Section 415, I.P.C. and as such prima facie amounts to an offence under Section 417, I.P.C. Besides this act of cheating, the petitioner and other accused are also alleged to have indulged in assaulting the intimidating the complainant and her parents which prima facie would give rise to an offences under Sections 323, and 506, I.P.C.” (Mir Wali Mohammad @ Kalu vs The State Of Bihar (1991 (1) BLJR 247 Order dated 2/7/1990)
‘intentional inducement’ giving ‘false of promise of marriage’ is cheating
Before Hon’ble Justice B.B. Vagyani of Bombay High Court the short point that arises for consideration iswhether the offence of cheating as defined under section 415 of I.P.C. embraces cases in which no transfer of property is occasioned by the deception.
