Next morning he theartend her warden that he will kill her if she come out from mess., so she could not file any report to police but she sent a mail to the police station regarding all this happen. Same day that boy filled a complain against me. Today he filled a case against me n my gf at the court under section [deleted]

At first you should apply for bail and thereafter move the HC for quashing of the case as it is vexatious. A counter case can be filed if it is made out.

Case and case in counter will keep developing the enmity and may cause multiplicity of proceedings.

However you may lodge a counter complaint owing to the prevailing circumstances.

Before that obtain anticipatory bail and be safe.

1. He has filed a private complaint case against you for which there will be no arrest.So, you won't have to take anticipatory bail at all since it is not a case against FIR registered by Police,

2. Contest the case fittingly with all the evidence you have,

3. Ask your GF to lodge a police complaint alleging molestation,

4. If police does not take any action against that said person, your GF should file a Writ Petition before the High Court against the Police for their inaction praying for justice.
