There is no proof of ilicit relations with the husband of that female and Mr.Thakur.That female also never complained against me of making any insult or molesting. How can Mr. thakur allege me of having illicit relations with anyone.Is he not liable to penal action u/c 499,500 for defaming third party with malice, in absence of good faith and public interest.
