Re: False FIR

was there any appeal filed against the judgment of M.M. if not, then the accused against whom the false case was filed, is within his rights to claim damages and compensation for malicious prosecution and can also file the private complaint u/s 200 of crpc.

Re: False FIR

Where the case is not proved on the part of prosecution, decided on merits, and accused is acquitted, Court may award damages under section 250(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898. Offence under section 182 IPC is also made out against complainant.

You may also file civil suit of malicious prosecution claiming damages. But keep in mind that your success in claiming damages is subject to finalization of the case against you such as appeal in higher court.
