If i remember and recall correctly, this question had come up earlier also. The FIR can be for allegations which constitute some offence. In this case the only offence is threat under section 506 IPC. No One can force you to do any act. It is your sweet desire. You may ask for mediation by the mediation centre functioning in all the district courts.
