Need help in 498A

1. Sec 498a is a cognizable offence, it means with out doing any prior investigation, police can arrest the accused person.

2. It is your right to have a copy of FIR lodged by your wife from the police and according to RTI act You must have the copy. But my suggestion is not to go police station now. Send your lawyer and get the copy. BAsed on the FIR copy you will be able to know all the quiries regarding the date, and all. But there is no need to submit evidence to file FIR u/s 498a.

It is your duty to be proved yourself as innocent, and you have been accused falsly by your wife.

3. Once 498a filed against you and then after if you want to move with divorce case, it affects you adversly. So be bold and give her a good fight. Remember only 2% cases at where the husbends are convicted and punished in 498a case as it is widely misusing in India.

4. If she complained that you have taken dowry, ask her before the court to produce IT return and submit your bank statement also. it will help you alot. start to collect all evidence first.

There are lot of cases in our country to file against your wife and quashed the 498a case. Consult your lawyer. But the selection of lawyers is the important thing. So go and get ready..

 Every sensible person now recognises that 498A a weapon of terror in the hands of greedy women and it has ruined many homes.

Courts too have accepted this fact. Congress government which enacted this law with glee to please the women's liberation movement accept the fact but loves to continue with it.

When the law was enacted, there were many bride burning cases in north India. As a knee jerk reaction, Congress brought this law into force. Its misuse there for all to see.

In the instant case, no body can save your from the TRIAL. In fact, police loves such cases as parties involved are generally from background with financial means. 

I suggest that you get in touch with a lawyer specialising in such cases. He is the best person to advise you. Tell him full facts without hiding anything.
