Criminal case for people residing abroad

Dear sir,

My wife's family is threatening to give the dowry case and domestic violence on me and my parents. I'm currently in abroad for more than 50 days and I am going to stay here for work hereafter.  Some people say if they give complaint I should go to India to give my side of explanation in police station as soon as they receive complaint and ask me to come to India and then clear it to come back. Please clarify .

Thanks

You may use online facility for filing of complaint and investigation, otherwise, seek help of some sibling/relative / friend / acquientance / attorney for proceeding before authorities / Court

In the event of criminal complaint lodged against you then the police may summon you to appear before them for inquiry 

In that case you may decide to be represented either by a lawyer or apply for anticipatory bail and challenge the case in court of law accordingly.
