"By far the best legal document drafting expert! I’ve been struggling with a false 498/406 and DV case from last 2 years and so far met 20+ Different lawyers from lower court to high court, but the major difference I see in Sahil is his intentions of making me out of this situation so that I can be a free man. Only a 30 min discussion with Sahil was an eye opener to me. Now I'm feeling more confident that such cases can also be defended and law can be moved from women-centric to men-centric. I have asked Sahil for a ‘bayan’ for my DV case which he, after analyzing 50+ documents, has made it in a lightning speed time of 24 hours. I would also say I was surprised that he didn’t forget to mention even a single nook of any statement that could be in my favor. I would highly recommend anyone for a free 30 min call that can give a new hopeful direction; without losing anything."

"Sahil is one of the best brains to help someone to fight these kinds of cases. His grasping power is awesome to understand your case quickly and provide a solution. Sahil knows very well which point he has to highlight in the draft so people like us get the clarity on our own case and get the best result in the court. His knowledge is admirable as he has a good grip on different IPCs and Cr.P.C from our law system. I worked with him on my 498a petition and feeling quite confident after working with him. I will recommend everyone to talk to Sahil once to get the best result from your case. Now he is my good friend too. Thanks Sahil."

"I got in connect with Sahil sir few months back to seek his guidance for 125 CrPC, DV, and 498A. I must say it's really helpful and Sahil sir had drafted a strong WS for me. It was under the sheer guidance of Sahil sir that I could tackle my mediation in a positive manner."

"I am very thankful to Apaizers Mens Rights in supporting and helping me in my case and saved my lakhs of rupees. Sir also motivates time to time, also advises how to maintain your health first which is NECESSARY in this critical condition. It's clear that no more people from our side help or motivate during this time of false cases. In this time, we require a good or best adviser. Really, Sir IS ALL IN ONE.

"I got my DV interim maintenance appeal prepared from Apaizers Mens Rights for the session court. It is so nicely drafted and prepared with relevant case reference due to which the session court dismissed the interim maintenance order passed by the lower court. Then in my DV case, the opposite party filed for execution petition for the arrears of the maintenance amount 1.2 lakhs, the objections drafted by Sahil Sir with the relevant facts and case reference got accepted by the court and the court dismissed the OP execution petition."

498A Quash Judgement after chargesheet 20.10.2021 –  The article is based on the view of the high court, that the allegations against a friend & maternal cousins i.e.; distant relatives of the husband do not attract the provisions of Section 498A as a distant relative and a friend did not appear to be immediate relatives of the husband also they did not share the matrimonial home at any point of time. There is an absurd allegation in the report that the petitioners had also made a demand of Rs.10 Lakh when they visited the matrimonial home of his wife on the occasion of Diwali. Such allegation lacks the element of certainty. So, the high court quashed the FIR because of the above grounds.

Arguments - 498A Quash Judgement after chargesheet 20.10.2021

Advocate of petitioners submitted that the prosecution of the petitioners is manifestly attended with malafide. The wife never alleged that the petitioners shared the matrimonial home with her. In fact, the maternal cousins & friends, being the distant relatives of the husband, could not have shared the matrimonial home with her.

Petitioner No.6, a friend of the husband has been roped in maliciously. By law, the friend does not fall within the scope of the word "relative" and, as a result, he cannot be charged for the offence punishable under section 498A of the Indian Penal Code.

The advocate further submitted that on the own showing of the wife, none of the petitioners was in the frame, when the wife had approached the Women Security Cell and gave the statement.

Lastly, it was submitted that even if allegations in the wife's report, qua the petitioners, are taken at their face value, no offence can be said to have been prima-facie made out against the petitioners, warranting their trial.

Court Opinion - 498A Quash Judgement after chargesheet 20.10.2021

The allegations against the maternal cousins & a friend are twofold. First, the maternal cousin & friend had been to the matrimonial house of the wife, on the occasion of Diwali, and they also threatened her to bring a sum of Rs.10 lakh from her father otherwise she would not be treated well, at her matrimonial home.

Second, during the course of the meeting held to resolve the matrimonial discord, the sisters of the husband joined her mother-in-law, in relieving her of the gold ornaments. Thereafter, the husbands of the sisters intimidated the wife, her father and relatives and turned them out of her matrimonial home.

The allegation lacks the element of certainty and authorship. Even if taken in moderation, these allegations would fall in the realm of "demand" only.

There are no allegations that the petitioners subjected the wife to cruelty in order to force her to meet the demand. In the information report, as regards the incident, a general allegation is made against the sisters of the husband, that, along with the mother-in-law, of the wife, the sisters of the husband confiscated the wife's gold ornaments.

Also, the contemporaneous complaint in writing and the proximate statement do not attribute the said role to the cousin sisters of the husband. On the contrary, the alleged role is played by the husband, his parents and brothers, in the complaint, alone in the statement.
