Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

Hello,

Sir,

I lodged 498a against my husband in jan 2008.But that time i didnot lodge complain under 406.But in my 498a FIR i mentioned that shreedhan is in their possession.Recently i again lodge complain under sec 406.Police has given adding prayer to add 406 with 498a.But police came to know thgat my husband and inlaws has taken anticipatory bail after i lodge 498a against them.But police said that they didn't know about AB and they came to know recently .Now police is saying that my chance of getting shreedhan is less as they got AB so they will not return my shrrehdan and will keep my shreedhan in some unknown place so that police cannot find it.

1)In such scenario what can i do?I don't have any lawyer.

You may make a demand of your istridhan by sending a written registered post notice and on failure to receive, lodge a fresh complaint with the police.

Meanwhile, you may also lodge a complaint with the court under POW DVA as this may be covered under "economic violence".

as you do not have a lawyer, so is police making excuses. 406 can be added irrespective of the fact that in laws have got an Anticipatory Bail. Bail was granted only u/s/ 498a and not 406. you may ask the IO to lodge another f.i.r. u/s 406 or ask him to add the said offence in the f.i.r.
