Hi Sir, My brother married to a girl last year , it was arranged marriage. At the time of marriage , she was working at Mumbai and my brother is working at Pune. Post marriage , she was not ready to come at Pune and leave her job. Also, she and her family started mentally harrasing my brother and my family. Also, she was putting question on my brother's character if he is talking to any girl working in his company which is necessity of time. Also, the girl dont have brother, so she was pressuring my brother to leave my parents and take care of her parents. She never gave any respect to my family and brother. She always used to put demand in front of my brother which can't be fulfilled. She used to give money to her family from her salary monthly. She used to abused my parents in front of my brother. she was not ready to spend a single day with my family. She planned a plot with her family and tried to interpret that my family is beating her , but the case was she tried to jump out of balcony , so my family tried to save her. Now, she fiiled Domestic Violence case against our whole family and demaned lump sum amount which we aree not able to give. Please suggest what should we do now. Thanks, Madhuri

First of all do not worry so much,every problem has a solution ,you will have to fight the case on merits
Filing a DV suit is easy but proving it actually is very difficult. Fight the case on merit, engage a good local lawyer.
Thanks for the reply Sir, but as per judiciary system is very strict about the DV cases and do not listen to boys side comments (as i read some of the post online), its getting difficult for us to answer there points as all of them are false and we can imagine the allegation they have posted on us.
Also I want to mention that she files case with section 18,19,20,21,22 of domestic violence act 2005 against all our family(brother, me, mummy, papa). please suggest.
@Rajni Mam , are u saying that it will be difficult for the complainant to prove her DV case, or it is difficult for us to fight against it. Thanks in advance for reply
1. If she has alleged any thing against you & your family, then the onus of proving the same lies with her,
2. Hope you have collected enough evidence for her cruelty against her husband & parents in law,
3. Engagae a lawyer having expertise in the field and contest the case fittingly.
This is first time we have seen such case in our whole family, they are demanding lump sum money. Problem with us that what evidences wee should arrange and how to reply on there false allegation . We engaged a local lawyer but we are not very sure how he will flight for us as he asked us to write reply on the case.
1. You should collect audio/video recording of all her abuses including threatening to lodge false police complaint if lump sum money is not paid to her,
2. Examine what has been alleged in the said DV case and arrange for the evidence to contest each & every allegations mentioned in the said DV petition.
Hi,
You need to prepare a reply and make your part of defense. Your wife will have to prove her allegations in the court. To disprove her the first way cross examination by your lawyer , whatever the strong case one puts up and alleges, most of them fumble during the cross examination .If there is no evidence to prove that her accusations are true she will not be able to win the case.. In some cases court overlook the cruelty , orders maintenance if the lady is not earning, and other related reliefs under domestic violence act. If you have received the copy of the petition make sure that you prepare a defense for each allegation eyeing the evidence in the court . Narrate everything you experienced and you know about the incidents mentioned in the petition so that your advocate will use each of them to put up a strong defense. Your reply is the best defense in domestic violence case, then see what kind of evidence you have, any witness , any documents, receipts, to prove that she stayed away most days, voice records, also you need to bring a defense that she was blackmailing you with suicidal threats.,
I just mean that filing a DV suit is easy but proving and justifying the violence is another thing. If she has filed the DV case, she has to prove violence in court. Have faith in judiciary, it is always neutral in such cases. Deny all her allegation in the petition, also mention your points. If you have any evidence against her, present that as supporting exhibit. You don't have to pay her anything since your brother's married life is too short + she herself is earning+ she has no liability(child). If she really is as described by you then there are chances she will lose the DV suit or any other suit.
