Respected Members,
I am basically from Bhopal but at present working in USA. I got married in India in the year 2010 with a Mumbai girl. Marriage could not last due to extortionist attitude and undesirable demands from the girl. So, the wife stayed with me six months & returned back to India. there she filed false 498 A & 406 ( Streedhan ) cases against me and my family. Even though she never stayed with my parents. Then we paid some amount of money ( This is also a legal terrorism & extortion tool ) & filed for Mutual divorce & quashing of all cases against me & my family. Cases have been quashed and divorce degree has been passed. This case is over. This is the back ground.
Now, while leaving USA to India, my wife ( Now ex wife) took along with her my pen drive ( Memory stick ) which is containing my family and home / house photos. My ex father-in-law has uploaded these family / house photos on the internet sites along with his retorted commentary. which is far from the truth. He has used abusing language while referring to us. Also, he has been sending bulk mails to hundreds of people known and unknown to us in India and abroad abusing us or portraying us as criminals.
My question is (1) If I can file any defamation case against him in India under Indian cyber law ? while I will not be able to attend to these cases in India. Is it possible that some one else can fight the case on my behalf under power of attorney from me?
(2) If yes, where I should file these cases? In Mumbai court or Bhopal Court?
(3) What is the time limit ( Statue of limitation ) to file such case? Time limit starts from his first post or the last post?
(4) In this matter how to collect / preserve the evidence? Whether simply taking the site print out is enough or we have to approach some other offices to get these certified? How to do this?
(5) My friends are suggesting to reply in the comments space of my ex father - in -laws blogs itself. Whether this will be appropriate? Or by doing this I will be committing some crime?
(6) Should I upload the bank account statements through which myself and my father has paid money to my ex wife. Money was extracted by her by threatening us. Which clearly shows that she had extracted the money from us & not the vice versa as alleged by her in her dowry complain.
Kindly advise. Your learned advice will be highly appreciated.
Regards
Praksh
