1. At first your brother and all those who have been mentioned as accused in the complaint/FIR should apply for anticipatory bail to preempt the arrest. Thereafter, the case is to be contested on merits. She has to prove the case beyond a shade of reasonable doubt.

2. To get the custody of child a petition for child custody is required to be filed which will be decided on the ground of welfare of child.

When a false 498A case is lodged against you then the next step is to take anticipatory bail and contest the case with your cogent evidence.In the child custody case the court is look in to welfare of child and take it as paramount consideration for decision up on the custody. The court will grant you visitation rights if you file interim petition.in DV case you have to file detailed reply denying all the allegations in the petition.

1. False charges have bcoe the order of the day and you can do nothing about this.Even if you can disprove this statements to be false not much relief would be granted.

2. You gave to focus on merit of the case and save as much money as you can.

3. For custody of the child you have to file suit for custody of the child where you get interim visitation of the child.

File mandamus mis. criminal writ ,before high court under article 226, for quashing of her complaint. Also seek direction from the high court for future coercove action against your brother. High court is empowered to lass such order. You have to showthat complaints are baseless and febricated.

1) since wife has already filed false DV /498A cases your brother can file for divorce on grounds of mental cruelty against his wife

2) if wife has dragged whole family in DV/498A cases there appears to be no future in the relation ship

The sections of IPC and DP act are common in nature when the police registers FIR on the basis of complaint received by them. It is a routine affair for the police. Better get anticipatory bail for all those who have been named as accused in the FIR and challenge the case before court during trial proceedings accordingly.
