CAW Cell forced to sign assurance letter
Question
My wife filed complaint at CAW cell Hyderabad alleging physical and verbal abuse on 498a grounds. I was not shown complaint, but there are photos and a medico legal for non major falsely blamed. At wps we agreed to resume marital relation after 2 months. We are Hindu and have a small child.
However SHO forced me to sign a assurance letter that “whatever is stated in the petition I will not repeat again else legal action will be initiated” else cases will be filed.
I will try for complaint copy via rti. My wife in future complaint can self afflict injury and claim he hits despite assurance letter with MLC in past complaint.
Will this letter impact future anticipatory bail, custody time, future conviction?
I want to resume marital life. How to record without confrontation about forced sign like non cognizable human rights complaint or notice for MOU or letter to police?
Answer ( 1 )
The signature on such letter can be claimed to be forced but that needs to be proved before the Court if you so assert. If you have the apprehension that your wife is going to inflict injury on herself and implicate you then in such case, avoid any confrontation with your wife. You cannot pre-empt such a situation but if you have a fear that you will be implicated in false cases then in that case, you may file for judicial separation if you are not intending to get divorce. The letter signed by you may hamper your future prospects of anticipatory bail if the same is produced by the police in the court. But that cannot be made basis for denying regular bail.
For proper advice, kindly seek one-on-one consultation. it needs further deliberation on facts and circumstances.
