Tax Evasion Petition: The most potent, but most under utilized tool by most of us.

The statement
of the girl is a noose in their necks. You just need to pull a little. File the Tax Evasion Petition as
soon as you get the list of dowry articles and list of expenses in marriage. Anything above 10
Lacs and they are doomed. The loss might just be financial to them, but enough togive you a lot
of breathing space. Also it may help you as an evidence in your defense. Dowry Prohibition Act,
1961 seems to be the favorite of almost all of us, specially ever since the Judgment of Hon'able S
N Dhingra about the same. But first see your own charge-sheet, have you been booked under DP
Act 3/4. The are some chances that you are not. The reasoning is simple, in most states One year
from the last incident is the time limit for filing DP Act. Now, when in your state one year is the
time limit for filing DP Act, how can you file a counter-case under the same act. I have seen
dozens of FIRs by now. The common ploy in all these FIRs is that the last day when they allege
to have given dowry is more than one year away from the date of filing of the complaint. This
cannot be a chance, they are definitely by design obviously someone had read his law correctly
at some point of time and most other have copied it diligently. But, thankfully for some of us and
woefully for others, this time limit has been set aside by state amendments in certain states. If
you are lucky to be living in one such state where there is no time limit to file DP Act. See, the
FIR/ Complaint closely, is there a specific allegation that some part of dowry was given in the
jurisdiction of the state where there is no time limit. Only, if you meet these conditions, you can
file a counter case. But to what avail, D/P Act, 1961 is bailable in most of the states. Again State
amendments comes to the rescue of some of us, but very few. What other cases one want to file:
AFTER A LOT OF UNDERSTANING, I HAVE DISCARDED ADVISING PEOPLE TO FILE
DP3 COMPLAINTS ANYMORE 120A/ B: Criminal Consipracy, What is the evidence that a
conspiracy was hatched against you. Do you have a recording where they are shown hatching a
conspiracy? Do you have some witness who has seen that they were plotting against you and
gone ahead and taken some action? 191: Giving False Evidence 192: Fabricating False Evidence
199: False statement made in declaration which by law is recieved as Evidence 200. Using as
true such declaration knowing it to be false 203. Giving false information respecting an offence
committed 209. Dishonestly making false claim in Court 211. False charge of offence made with
intent to injure How can the above be done, without Evidence being done in your case. 321.
Voluntarily causing hurt Prove the same without being discharged. Can you? 378. Theft 380.
Theft in dwelling house, etc Did you institute the complaint, before she lodged a complaint,
otherwise your complaint is a counter blast 403: Dishonest misappropriation of property 405:
Criminal breach of trust Again did you institute the complaint, before she lodged a complaint,
otherwise your complaint is a counter blast 499: Defamation 500: Punishment for Defamation:
Again valid only when you are discharged, though the application may lie before you get
discharged too, but no proceedings would be allowed. 503: Criminal Intimidation 504:
Intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace What are the proofs for the same,
any previous litigation? Or is it just a counter blast. 182: Giving False information to public
servant: On discharge naturally. Then there are other cases, which might apply in very particular
cases, and can be 307/ 323/ 377 etc., but without basis and unsubstantiated, it does not appeal to
my sensibilities. ANOTHER THING WHICH I ALWAYS SUGGEST, IS IF YOU HAVE A
CASE, LET THE STATE FIGHT IT OUT FOR YOU. REMEMBER THAT IN 498A SHE
CAN SIT AND RELAX, WHILE THE STATE FIGHTS FOR HER. GIVE HER THE TASTE
FOR HER OWN PILL. Hence my dear friends, let's not try to bring cart before the horse or try
to cross the bridge before we come to it. First priority should be to get AB/ Regular Bail for all
family members. Then wait for challan/ charge-sheet and then till you get a chance tofile other
cases. One thing which I have noticed that at the start of the case against us, we are all fired up to
file a counter case. And once the case ends and we win, what do we do? How many of us know
of people filing 499/ 500 or 182 or any such other case. How many of us have given press release
to stop other bitter-halves from filing false and frivolous cases? Are not we the same people, who
did not vote and now complain of having a good-for-nothing government? If yes, let's keep mum
and let things be as they are. We have no right to object, comment or criticize the government if
we have not fulfilled our duty of voting. And we should not build air-castles, if we have no
intention of taking things to there logical end. The strength of the man is not in his words but in
his actions. If you have it in you, get started, help others, file a PIL, an RTI, shoot letters to every
possible place and educate people about menace. Your time would come to get even.
