Kindly check what is relationship with your uncle's daughter.

 

Whether she is maternal uncle daughter or your paternal uncle daughter ?

 

If she is maternal uncle than can proceed with her a marriage and close the issue or check with the girl if she above 18 years than no need to take concern about uncle.

Restriction on marriage is a coercion. You can file complaint against it. And if the daughter of your uncle has attain the age of majority. Then aske her to give consent for not filing any complaint against you, also If there is no force/assult/harassment between you and your uncle's daughter, then POCSO will not apply.

1. In order to safe guard yourself against any probable false legal case on you, you will need to talk to the daughter "in confidence" and record her statement before the court "oath commissioner" or "registrar", which should be in your favor.  This is possible only if Girl is of major age (18 years) and gives her statement without knowledge of her parents.

2. The above shall be final & irrefutable in your favor and NOBODY will be able to file any case against you.

1. D not worry and go to the Police.

2. Lodge a complaint of extortion and criminal intimidation and after lodging the complaint do meet the Senior officers so action is taken against him through internal channel.

3. Alternatively file petition u/s 156(3) crc.

4. If you do not want to confront your uncle then just move away from him and severe all connections with him.

You consult a lawyer and issue a legal notice to your uncle warning him to refrain from indulging in such illegal activities in future.

If he  fails to respond or still threatens then you can give a complaint against him with the top police officer of the city along with the copy of the legal notice and seek protection and relief.

Before going to worry about false case , think about the what the law says. The POCSO Act, 2012 is a comprehensive law to provide for the protection of children from the offences of sexual assault, sexual harassment and pornography, while safeguarding the interests of the child at every stage of the judicial process by incorporating child-friendly mechanisms for reporting, recording of evidence, investigation and speedy trial of offences through designated Special Courts. 

The said Act defines a child as any person below eighteen years of age, and defines different forms of sexual abuse, including penetrative and non-penetrative assault, as well as  sexual harassment and pornography, and deems a sexual assault to be “aggravated” under certain  circumstances, such as when the abused child is mentally ill or when the abuse is committed by a person in a position of trust or authority vis-à-vis the child, like a family member, police officer, teacher, or doctor. People who traffick children for sexual purposes are also punishable under  the provisions relating to abetment in the said Act. The said Act prescribes stringent punishment graded as per the gravity of the offence, with a maximum term of rigorous imprisonment for life,and fine.

In your case you have evidence with regard to the threat. So better you file a complaint before SP of police against your uncle and marry any person as per your own wish. If he file false case approach the propr court for anticipatory bail.

Dear sir,

There is no need to bow down to these pressure tactics. 

You can give a written complaint to the Superintendent of Police in your district against your uncle stating all the facts along with the copy of the the threat recordings 

And then marry the girl of your choice. 

In case a complaint is registered against you, you can obtain an anticipatory bail and defend yourself. 

Best wishes.
