• Received threats on call

One of my relative (husband of my elder sister who is now in Australia) is threatening me and my parents on call that he knows where my younger sister lives in Australia and is threatening to harm her. Also he abused me and my parents and said that he is coming to India in some days and will harm us. I don't have any call recordings. Our whole family is in lots of stress. What should be the course of action ?

Since you received the call through his phone, you may draft a complaint neatly to the local police station and submit it apprehending danger from his threatening calls for you and your family members in India besides harm to your sister living in Australia.

If he had given such calls to your sister at Australia, then she can take action from that place itself by calling local police and initiate necessary action as per law.

Respected sir/mam 

First of all you need not to worry about that as this is only a minor issue just write down all the things in the format of a complaint and give the same to your nearest police station for lodging of FIR and then also move an application to the home minister of your state by mean of CM window and also copy of that complaint and it will be much better if that will register as in the form of FIR provide both the copies of complaint and FIR to the Foreign ministry office situated at Delhi they will their self take legal action against him .he will not do nothing just don't worry and if the problem persist just call me I am from Haryana I will solve this issue out of way .

 

Thank you
