Dear Querist

You may file an application before the magistrate and demand a status report from the police official/investigation officer, the court shall direct to I.O. to file a status report of the case and if the IO stated before the court that due to that reason he/she is not going to arrest the Husband then you may raised your objections.

1)498A cases take 10 years to be disposed of

2) there is no future with the sadistic husband

3) it is in your interest to agree for mutual consent divorce

4) seek sole custody of your child

5) consent terms should provide for your alimony and maintenance of the child

6) if you want to continue your 498A case wait for police investigations to be completed and charge sheet to be filed

1. Rejection of AB is not enough reason to arrest the accused though you can send letter to higher officers of police department to arrest him.

2. For not cooperating with you in proper investigation of the case you may file writ petition in high court against police inaction.

The police, if did not remand the accused through magistrate at the time of registering the FIR, it will be difficult for them to trace the accused and produce them before concerned magistrate for remanding them under judicial custody.

A Magistrate may order for the remand of the arrested person to police custody u/s 167 (3) of the Cr.P.C. The Magistrate should be fully satisfied that there is good ground to remand the accused to police custody.

Since your husband is trying to obtain anticipatory bail and has gone underground till then, you may have to wait for the developments.

If you find that the police is ineffective on your compliant then you may approach the magistrate court with a petition under section 156(3) cr.p.c. seeking direction to concerned police for initiating proper legal action on your complaint pending before them.

You cannot expect any cooperation from police to the level of your expectation.

The police handle plenty of such cases everyday.

They cannot prioritise cases as per the complainant's desire or wishes.

You can file an objection to his anticipatory bail application before high court where he is trying to get the same by filing an intervene petition to record your objection.

You can file a caveat before high court to know about any such pending petition for AB by him in advance before granting him bail.
