hello
two years ago I accidentally trespassed into a house in an inebriated state. It was an accident and they were independent houses and all the houses look exactly the same. since I was drunk the people in the house, who were bachelors, thought i was an intruder and started beating me up until my friends came and intervened. everything was calm and cool but i lost my cool and i went against the inhabitants of the house for beating me (i just shouted at them and i asked them to lodge a police complaint ; yeah, i know, it is my stupidity) so they lodged a complaint with the police.
the police took me to the police station and scolded me for being so irresponsible. after that i don't know what happened the inhabitants wrote something on a paper and i was asked to pay a fine of 1500 in the court. i was sent after spending around 1 hr in the police station and the next day i went to the court and paid the fine. the police there assured me that it was a petty case and nothing to worry at all.
currently am not working and am preparing for government competetive exams and the incident happened in chennai and now i live in hyderabad. the police station which took me in was also not the place i used to live while i was in chennai.
my question is simple....
If I were to get selected in a government job or any other job for that matter, will this case jeopardise my career and my life?
will i be treated as a criminal equivalent to a murderer???
Please give a simple answer because a few advocates are debating and arguing over their counterpart's replies rather than giving their own perception. this is not a debate thread and that is why am posting this post again.
thank u
