My wife filed FIR against me will it affect my careers?

Dear Suresh.

Please go through the following points as enumarated herein below first:

1. 498a case is a criminal case, If you will convicted by the court you will be punshid by imprisonment and or fine upto 03 years.

2. You can not hide the fact, because for Govt job you will be varified by police and after getting negetive answer from their end you must be terminated, secondly you may suffer for "supression of fact" case.

Lastly I wish you all the best, though I am not a lawyer but got some good suggestion from this forum and I am sure that you will be getting more help and advise from here, keep in touch with us. Give a good fight, dont compromise with them at this stage or rather it is not required at all.

God bless you..

Regards

Rajkumar

3. You have got the bail by court and must be some provision, mainly to help the case for its proper investigation, your presence as per the requirement is mandetory, So dont try to fly away untill it settled.

In false dowry case, when you got the bail it seems that you hsave won half the battle. Now concentrate to prove yourself as innocent before the court.

5. I suggest you to get financial help, you may apply and join in pvt job. It is essential to you to have a money flow in your hand as you are to gone through the Indian judiciary system.

498a is a criminal case. if there is a column and they specifically need this information, then write in the coloumn - 'a 498a case pending'  do not write much more about the case, and do not hide. if you hide it now, it may effect in future.

when you got bailed the court perhaps ask you that whether you have passport or not? if you have passport and said yes then it will be noted by the court and the court instruct about the passport. however  you have to ask permission from the court before you leave India. This is compulsary. please do not try to avoid it. in case of avoidance, the court may declare you as an absconder and additional charge will be framed in this issue.mind it your wife's party always watching you.

always remain within the law - it is benificial to a common man. better you press the court or go to highcourt for a quick decission. if your hc lawyer advise file a quash proceedings under sec 482 of crpc at hc, - for the 498a.

Sorry, please read the "lastly" paragraph at last.

" it is essential to you to have a money flow in your hand as you are gone through the indian judiciary system" ..............ha ........ha ................ha................

Mr rajkumar your serious advice makes a good joke.

hey bro....

save ur life first...then ur career..........ur life is at stake bro.......concentrate to get out of this hell first ........and u cant hide things for long from anyone...either ur employer or ur near ones.....once the case will start......u need to appear regularly and blah blah before the court....and all records will be available with Police....so if any enquiry is made, u will be caught..........

Fight back or ...........  god bless.......

Suresh,

What does your bail condition say? If the bail condition says that you should inform the court before leaving India or take the permission from the court, then you need to adhere to the rules before going to US for job. Everyone knows that this is the false 498a case and you will get the exemption if you apply for the same.

Secondly, since you do not have the job, then you can file for the divorce on the grounds of cruelty and in the same petition file for maintenance u/s 24 HMA. Only in this sections husbands are allowed to file the case of maintenance with the conditions that you are having at present. Your wife will have to give you the maintenance, how so ever small. Try for the jobs and in private jobs, do not disclose the truth if not asked.

Dear all,

One of my relatives is also under the same situation. A false case has been filed under 498A and he has got bail. I want to understand normally how long it takes for court to settle the matter (Haryana Court) and also I have heard about mediation centres opened recently to quickly settle off these cases. What is procedure to go to such mediation centres when the matter is pending at court. Can we get the matter transferred and if so are such centres good. Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Preeti

Mr. suresh, Your case is not unique.  Several hundreds of cases are decided in a definite manner.  Kindly go to Central Administrative Tribunal web site and find several cases of 2009 itself.

Mr. Raj Kumar Chaudhary's answer gives perfect reply.  In Central Govt. / State Govt. jobs at the time of issuing offer of appointement, you are required to fill up attestation forms.  One of the conditions is that concealment of any information will automatically make you liable to be dismissed from the service.  There is one column which asks you - "Whether you are arrested/prosecuted/jailed /convictedand whether any FIR/ criminal proceedings case is pending against you.  You should reply truthfully about Section 498-A case.  This attestation form will be sent to the police authority for verification.  If you conceal, then also the employer comes to know about the pending case.  Hence, trulthfully reveal it.  Even though Section 498-A case is a criminal case, the employers presently are not taking this thing very seriously and your candidature will be considered positively. 

Wish you best of luck.

Hi all, Thanks for your replies and advise.....Mr Hardik, they didn't mention anything abt leaving india in my bail.....my wife is doing her higher studies peacefully and she scored CGPA 9(college topper).....she joined the college and mentioned her maritial status as "single" after the marriage.....so she is not earning also...i'm not able to join the job bcus of this criminal case...i'm mentally depressed bcus of this...

ms. preeti, the case of 498a, whether false or genuine will be decided by the concerned judge only. in general, no specific time bar fixed. for a quick decission you may pray at the same court. you may go to high court under sec 482 of crpc, but before witness generally hc will not quash the case. you also go to appeal before the chief justice of district court also.

mr suresh, you are luckey fellow.  in a marriage others get a wife only, there you got a 'toper wife'. better you ring her and get the matter selttled between you two. then you will be  in the toppest.. 

in private, there is less restriction regarding criminal case etc. you may try for  your own business also.

Dont be depressed. to day in our country this is the common problem in numbers of family. Dont get tension, You are so lucky that have got the bail... Now the ball is in their court. You just collect various evidence to be orve yourself as innocent before the court. Give a good fight against the  498a  misuser, We all are with you.

Best of luck.

I do agree with choudhary.

Respected Mr. Choudhary,

When you say...collect evidence for your innocence....I would like to know what kind of evidence an innocent person can collect if he has done nothing and the opposition is charging him for physical,mental harrasement, dowary charges, tried to kill her by trying to throw her out of second floor window, threaten her on telephone, forced her to abort, falsly alleging her of adultery....etc..etc?

What if they produce wrong witnesses (mainly from their family and friend)?
