Terms of IPC 498A Settlement

Please guide me and my helpless family for the following queries:

1. Can we include IPC 498A clause in Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) settlement? Does 498A get nullified through MoU?

2. After signing MoU, can in-laws go back on their words and break MoU?

3. After getting divorce how much valid is 498A?

Dear Victimof 498AA (Student),

It is evident from your post that the MOU sent to you is nothing but only a pressure tactic.  Once the proceedings u/s 498A are initiated then the criminal procedure code regulates the matter and even presuming the MOU is agreed upon either of the party or both the parties have to approach the court and it is the discretion of the court (especially after ADALAT PRASAD JUDGEMENT) to quash the proceedings in Section 482 Proceedings.   Consult a competent Advocate procure the records of the case and if the allegation are not true what's there to worry for fight it out..

All the best

its good to know that in ur case the matter has been compromised.

certainly the FIR can be quashed in your case , there are enough judgments by SC and various HCs in this regard.

if possible pls send the draft compromise/ MOU to my mail id, so that i can give u few suggestions in this regard.

Victim,

Do not agree for the MoU and tell that you are ready to fight the case, the demands will come down.You can get the case closed without giving any single penny.

fight it out . dont succumb to pressure. your wife appears to be a professional bride with main business to enter the marriage bond and then extort  from the innocents. You send her  a notice of desertion and cruelty towards yourself. Moreover you can also claim the damages calling for compensating the expenses borne by you in solemnising the marriage. You can also file a case through your legal attorney or authorized representative in India against her. Cruelty would not stand in your case if the case pases through the acid test of evidence. Instead of paying her you can ask as to how they are going to compensate  for your mental agony. You can also go for quashing the case in Higher court.

Dear,

I agree with all replies posted to you.why settle?not a penny for such a notorious wife.face the trial.you will surely get acquittal.
