Since if there us no compromise in police station the police shall lodge the fir ans send the matter to the district family committee constituted by Supreme Court guidlines , the said committee shall issue you notice mediate between you two and prepare a report. Before report there is no arrest now so donot worry.

You can apply for AB and persue with case so IO finds no evidence to effect the charges can be dropped

Kindly refer complete judgement and guidlines.

Better to take anticipatory bail for any such problem and let the police investigation go on.

If the cooling period is over you need to file the divorce petition.

Hi,In the Delhi, the Permission of the DCP is very much required for the registering the Case under 498/A. So plz verify it either in the Court or Police station that whether the police has registered the FIR and if they registered the FIR then you have to approach the Court for Anticipatory Bail.

Your mother should file suit and seek injunction restraining you and DIL from disturbing her possession of the house

2) wife cannot claim any rights on property standing in name of MIL

3) you should apply for AB in sessions court

The police shall inform you through phone also and a notice shall be sent to you if your wife know your rented place the same address can be used.

Also you can contact the concerned police station to enquire the status of FIR.

Sir it is least chance that both police and District Committee Formed would submit report without your presence than also dont take chance based on complaint obtain Anticipatory bail.

No Sir District Committee is not Crime Against Women Cell it is Separate Authority constituted by court to review the case of matrimonial dispute on receipt of complaint either from police or magistrate they shall communicate with parties that is they send a notice to you to be present and then prepare a report.

First take anticipatory bail, then contact your wife through police and handover or deposit her complete luggage to police and take endorsement of police and her that her all goods are returned by you.

1/ Once mediation fails the Police registers FIR a copy of which is supplied free of costs to the complainant while the accused person can apply for its certified copy from court.

2. Once FIR is registered you are likely to receive a copy of notice under section 41a of crpc from police containing the case details.

3.You can inform the police expressing your willingness to return her articles.

Dear Concerned

Please note that if the FIR is registered you will receive notice under section 41A of the crpc and you will have to report to police station and join further investigation. The day you get the information on registration of FIR , you may choose to file Anticipatory bail and you will get it. When the police calls you for enquiry under 41A , propose to return her stuff which is with you - get it documented. (will come handy at a later stage).

Best of Luck

It is for the police to see for the availability of evidence to register FIR.

If they register FIR then you may have to obtain AB first and then challenge her false allegations in the trial court accordingly.

First of all you concentrate in your divorce cse.

Since it is your mother;s house, it is not her matrimonial home

She can claim matrimonial home only in the house where you curretnly reside.

If she is asking for residential rights she can be show your rented house where you now reside, if she is not willing to come there you can inform the court about it and let the court decide.

Hi

Leave all the complications you mentioned here.

If FIR is filed against you then you will come to know for sure.

Then you can take the defence that this FIR is just a reverted action of the divorce case you filed.

Her all the items can be submitted to the court and court will give them to your wife.

In all donot worry. If FIR is filed you will easily get bail (if some other criminal charge is not put on you like 377 IPC or something).

Thank You

Hello,

You must obtain an anticipatory bail at the earliest in the present case, because it is highly likely that the FIR will be lodged at any point of time

You will get a notice of 498A for appearance before the police, in case the FIR is lodged and thereafter you may obtain the copy of the FIR.

You can apply for anticipatory bail before filing of FIR by your wife. You can also do that after FIR Registered. Later police will file chargesheet in the matter and trial will commence.
