Self-Introduction

Government Sponsored Legal Terrorism - IPC 498A(Indian Penal code)

You can Control TERRORISM; But you cann`t control or STOP Government Sponsored Legal Terrorism IPC - 498A.

Government can make LAW to STOP terrorism, and punish Terrorist and misusers; But who will punish Government bodies who make laws like IPC 498A, which harass more innocent than save.Which send more old aged parents to jail falsely, Even Pregnent sisters of man who is victim of ipc 498a along with breast fed children.

Supreme Court of India called, misusing 498a is a legal terrorism; still no one ready to scrap this Notorious Law nor amend it; Even they know there are more innocents are victimised.

Government knows there is mass scale of misuse; but they do not punish misuser; Law think all wives are Victims of Domestic violence.

When there is so much support for this misuse; and government blindly watch this and do nothing;

then this is Government Sponsored Terrorism than what Else. Dowry Law Misuse --Rudy3107 11:39, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Help against Vandalism

Dear Rudy, - The Save Indian Family had once again come under attack by vandals over the last few days, with two of them reinserting the "POV" tag despite it being removed after due notice inviting reasons on the talk page. Please help keep a watch on the page and revert any further vandalisms promptly. I have requested Page protection (See [protection request for Save Indian Family]), and if it is approved, we may be able to discourage these vandals, at least for a time. Regards, My Wikidness 12:13, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I`M not the only One

With Reference to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Andrew_c/archive4

As Andrew Said. [["Sorry, this is with reference to your recent edits to the Domestic violence entry. As a member of Save Indian Family, I would like to know where you acquired the notion that the SIF (Save Indian Family) is the "parent" organization of MyNation.net.

It is true, as you stated, that MyNation.net is not, as far as I am aware, an organization; my understanding is that it is merely one victim's website on this particular subject - this is Rudolph de Sousa, a Mangalorean Konkani Christian who has been victimized by these criminal "laws" since the last ten years or more by his wife and the State [1]. Rudolph's personal crusade is older than the Save Indian Family, which was founded as an Internet d-list much later, although he is intimately involved with it.

Aside from that, I would like to know the reasons for what I perceive to be your hostile animus against MyNation.net or the SIF.

Is it perhaps because you believe in the superstition that only men are capable of wrongdoing and that women are by their natural constitution incapable of any wrongdoing? That superstition is precisely the "legal" basis of these laws governing "sexual harassment" and "domestic violence".

Please let me know.]]

I`m not the only one and MyNation.net is not a Mouth piece of ONE person but its collective Voice of Many Victims. You can see many more Victims Details here http://mynation.net/db and http://mynation.net/blog

There are many more in our Database who are still Affraid to Just tell thier Name and many in million men who are Ashmed to tell to public that they are harassed by thier own wives UNFORTUNATLY.

I'm sorry that you are so passionate about this issue and that I somehow offended you. I was just trying to keep up standards you know. Wikipedia is not a directory of weblinks. Every single organization on a topic does not belong in an article about a topic. Please read our WP:EL guidelines. Also, because of WP:NPOV, we must give each side due weight. I still believe that the link in question does not belong in the main article about domestic violence, but instead the internal link to the much more detailed article Save Indian Family is appropriate. I request that you please stop contacting me personally and move this discussion to Talk:Domestic violence or another article talk page. Thanks.--Andrew c 15:04, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Truth About Dowry Law - Study Report

This is a Report based on 5 years Research and Study on dowry Prohibition act, its use and misuse.This Reasearch conducted by our own Experts of MyNation for Save Indian Society,and not funded by any gender biased organisations. We studied 1500 Plus Families, these are feed backs from them and from the reports published by media.

What is IPC-498a OR Dowry Law ?

Cognizable – The accused can be arrested and jailed without warrant or investigation Non-Bailable – The accused must appear in the court to request bail Non-Compoundable – The complaint cannot be withdrawn by the petitioner

The accused, on a woman's one complaint, are considered guilty until proven innocent, and the burden is on the accused to prove their innocence in the courts. It is even more torturous that old ailing parents too are arrested prior to investigation. Is this not violation of Human Rights of Indian citizen?

When an FIR (First Information Report) under IPC section 498A (anti-dowry law) is registered by a woman, the accused - the husband and his old parents, brothers, sisters, relatives - are arrested and jailed without investigation. The Supreme Court of India has ruled several times that arrest should be an exception, and not compulsory. Why is there no penalty for disobeying the Supreme Court's orders? Is it not mental cruelty to subject a person to arrest without investigation or reasonable cause? Police are subjected to gender sensitization training wherein they are forced to take women's complaint and arrest the accused even when they find the case to be fabricated. And in case the police do not react on a woman's false complaint, the women groups are given unnecessary powers to take legal action against the officer-in-charge of the police station.

As per our Study, we found out that, it is a custom in India to give support to bride in the form of gold and valuables to support her future life with her husband, as husband take home the bride's Father's financial burden.

There are certain natural problems in every marriage that are always resolved amicably. In olden day, men and women used to manage these trivial differences in their marriages, but today's modern women are not ready to compromise on petty issues, which are part and parcel of a married life.

Shobha [Name Changed] says dowry is not an issue. Ours was love- cum arranged marriage. I know my father's capacity and how much he can give. And after marriage there is not chance takeing any money, so i only told my Husband,that he can take.we happy with that,it helped us to build our Family.we should not take Stridhan as dowry.

When we get marry, to make new house, start family we need money,from girl side her father should provide to start family,and man should not demand more than what girls family offer.Says Priya[Name changed]

We are not talking about the dowry deaths or physical injury cases but about dowry harassment cases that require no evidence and can be filed based on a single complaint by the wife. With an estimated of 60,000 such accusations per year and an average of 4 members of the husband's family falsely implicated in each of these 498A cases, about 240,000 people are directly affected by these false accusations.

Latest Statistics Published on IBN-CNN.

In 2004, 58,319 dowry cases were registered.
1,34,757 men were arrested.
47,828 cases have reached the charge sheet stage.
10,491 dowry cases were not charge sheeted as they were based on frivolous ground.
However, 5,739 men have been convicted but more than four times that number have been acquitted (24,127)

The controversial section not only covers dowry, but a wide spectrum of incidents including cruelty, causing injury and danger to mental or physical health. [Source: http://www.ibnlive.com/news/tortured-hubbies-victims-of-498a/27446-3.html ] as on June 30 2005 are those under sections 498 and 498(A). In the first six months this year, 3801 new cases under just these two sections were instituted.

Thanks to the awareness levels amongst women, many more are approaching the courts today than before. Consider this against the number of cases that are disposed. They are only 2432 cases. Of them, only 164 cases led to convictions. 1449 cases ended in acquittal with the women considering further appeals. [source :http://www.indianexpress.com/res/web/pIe/full_story.php?content_id=79802 ]

This poorly formulated law is inviting women to file false cases, and causing the imprisonment of innocent husband and his old parents without investigation. They are put behind bar along with other criminals. These innocent people undergo stigmatization and emotional trauma even before the trial in the court of law, which leads to emotional, physical and financial torture. Some of the falsely accused have committed suicide after being jailed, unable to bear the social consequences. Helplessness drove these innocent families to commit suicide. What is the Government doing to protect these innocent families?

'''Result of False Accusations'''.

As per Recent report from Ahmedabad, Rajesh Hasmukh Desai, a married man, committed suicide. He was falsely charged under IPC 498A. If a woman dies in "any" circumstances within seven years of marriage, police, by default, will arrest the husband and his parents for abetting suicide of a woman or for dowry death. But in this case, police did not interrogate his wife, nor took any action against her. Rajesh's case file was closed and the actual perpetrator got scot-free. Why the possibility of the wife driving her husband Rajesh Desai to suicide was ruled out ? Why she is not punished for abetting her husband's suicide?

A study by Professor K. Nagaraj, senior economist at the Madras Institute of Development Studies (MIDS) The distribution of suicides by marital status reveals some alarming pattern. The rates do not vary much between the sexes for the never married.

Among those currently married, while the rate for males is about 17 per 100,000 persons, the rate for females is 11.4 per 100,000.

Among those widowed, while the rate for males is 21 per 100,000 persons, the rate for females is also significantly lower, at 6.6 per 100,000.

Among divorced males the suicide rate is 164 per 100,000 persons, but even in this class, among females the rate is only 63 per 100,000.

While the suicide rate for separated men is about 167, for females it is only 41 per 100,000 persons.

Such alarming statistical reports have not yet convinced the Government that men too are victims of domestic violence and not providing them legal protection will only increase the suicide numbers for men.

[Source: http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl1821/18210960.htm ]

Despite the recommendations of the Supreme Court of India and Justice Malimath Committee that the legislative arm should modify the laws such that the innocent are protected. The suggested amendment in the 498A law has been largely ignored. Innocent men and old parents are visiting women cell for help, but they are neglected. Unchecked, this social evil is threatening the foundation of the Indian Family system.

Why do people misuse IPC 498a?

Legal Extortion – When marriage is on the brink of Divorce, she finds no better weapon to harass her husband and in-law than 498A. Women will blackmail her husband and in-laws and coerce them to fulfill her demands or else she will file a false complaint against them. The husband knows that the law indiscriminately favours the woman and so he agrees to her selfish demands.

Pre/extra marital Affairs – She marries to satisfy her parents without disclosing her past. When the husband finds out about her affairs, she then files a false dowry case to blackmail him.

Domination – Wife wants the husband to abandon his parents and siblings, so that she can have total control over his finances and social behavior, including his life-style.

Custody - Deny the father and his family access to their child(ren).

Fraudulent Marriages - Many times girl's family will not disclose actual facts of their daughter, at the time of marriage. Such facts, if known by the groom, the marriage would have never taken place. And when the husband stands his ground, the girl and her family begins their legal extortion.

In-Laws - When modern women are unable to adjust with her in-laws, when they find it difficult to dominate her husband and make him dance on her tunes, she goes for filing a false dowry case.

Consider a person who works extremely hard to make his career in this competitive World. Then he marries a beautiful and innocent looking wolf who drags him to court. There he is bound to lose all dignity, child custody and above all 50% of his income. He is forced to give out all his savings and family's investments to this woman. Using his money, the wolf teaches to the child that his/her father was bad. Despite feeding the child of fathers' money, the child, believing the wolf's teachings, begins to hate the father. He has nothing to look at when he grows old.

This is nothing but sheer cruelty. Extreme disaster and an unending mental trauma. Apart from this I've seen men being ditched by various girls before marriage. In cities it is common that girl have many boyfriends. And they choose the richest among them for marriage. Rests are ditched. And few weaker among them commit suicide. Says Amit Agarwal, an victim of 498A.

Out of 100 cases that are ordered for investigation under 498A, only in 2 cases the accused get convicted.

People generally use this law to facilitate divorce. And often, it's the lawyers who advise the women to implicate their in-laws under the provisions of this Act, says Shantosh Singh, chairperson of Women Welfare Counseling Cell. Often, the number of items given in dowry is inflated to claim a high settlement amount. "There are only 10 per cent cases based on truth, and people usually come to us and ask specifically to mention the element of dowry in their divorce petitions," says Amrikh Singh Kalra, advocate at Punjab and Haryana High Court.

Women mis(using) laws to get even ? NEW DELHI, Oct 18 (PTI) —Laws against violence at home may or may not have come to the rescue of battered women, but some of them have been accused of abusing them to get an easy divorce or settle other little domestic disputes. [Souce:http://www.tribuneindia.com/1999/99oct19/nation.htm#7 ]

According to the available statistical information from the National Crime Records Bureau and information available from NGOs working with victims of violence, there is a general tendency to avoid seeking redressal among the victims of domestic violence. However, when a victim of domestic violence seeks help from any of the agencies, be it family, friends, NGOs, or lawyers, before registering a complaint, at each stage she is asked to reconcile the matter or to put up with the situation. Reconciliation in 498A cases takes place at every stage including the police station, Crime against Women Cells and courts.

We found that in five cases filed under Section 498A the parties settled the matter after agreeing on maintenance and divorce.

In a majority of the cases before a victim filed the complaint under Section 498A, the minimum period she suffered physical and mental torture, was for about three years.

The trial process is quite lengthy and the proportion of pending cases is quiet high (out of the 40 cases based on victims' interviews which went for trial in court, 28 cases are still pending). In the cases tracked, the normal trial period was between five to ten years.

"It was found that it was difficult to prove physical and mental torture. In all the eight cases in which the accused were acquitted, the victims were found to have suffered physical and mental torture, but as there was not enough evidence to prove torture, the accused were let off.

The cases where the accused were convicted had been filed under Section 498A along with section 304B and 302, which are applicable after the death of the victim. There were no convictions in any of the cases registered only under Section 498A.

It has been found that out of 30 cases there is not a single case where the accused has been convicted only under Section 498A. The accused have been acquitted (11 cases) by the court where the prosecutor failed to provide evidentiary proof of cruelty, mainly mental, inflicted on the victim as provided under Section 498A IPC.

The judicial authorities of India, in number of landmark judgments, have taken a serious view of the growing tendency to falsely implicate innocent members of the husband's family in dowry cases. Describing misuse of IPC-498a law as "legal terrorism", the Supreme Court said no one could be allowed to unleash frivolous proceedings on this count as the provisions of Section 498A "is intended to be used a shield not as an assassin's weapon."

"The stringent dowry laws, meant to deter dowry-seekers, are being increasingly misused by the very people they are meant to protect. The last three years have seen a steep rise in the number of cases of harassment for dowry". [Source: http://cities.expressindia.com/fullstory.php?newsid=170603. ]

Only one out of six dowry complaints genuine [ source : http://www.tribuneindia.com/2004/20041013/cth1.htm ]

Most of the time it's a bargaining tool for women when husband finds her Infidelity. Adulterous women were responsible for divorces in every 3rd case. [Source : http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_1551427,000600010004.htm ]

There are many heart-rending stories of innocent families being arrested without investigation and put in judicial custody. While IPC 498A is supposed to be a law to protect women, ironically it harms many more women. For every male accused of IPC 498A, there is at least one woman (his mother or sister) who is implicated in a crime that never occurred or they never stayed together. If there are more women in the family they too are accused irrespective of their age, health condition, marital status or their physical proximity to the complainant. There are many Reports of married sisters of husband, even they are pregnant or with a baby in hands are jailed without any investigation or the entire family is ruthlessly arrested without investigation and there are no words to describe the financial hardship and emotional trauma that they have to endure. Children suffer whether they are jailed along with their mothers or are separated from them during that time.

Another striking feature of these victim stories is that the complainants, in collaboration with the police make sure that the arrests are strategically planned to harass and demoralize the accused, to make them succumb to the fear of being imprisoned and to extract huge amounts of money thereafter.

Here is list of few Victims are harassed for many years, without rays of hope to get Justice.

http://mynation.net/db .

Everyone knows there are loopholes in 498A, and media reports, Judges warn and Politician admit openly.

An offence has been committed by the accused upon the sole testimony of the woman alleging abuse. Given that lying in court has never been taken seriously enough to invoke punishment, laws which presume guilt even before the trial has begun are prone to great misuse.

98% misuse is "okay" says Minister Renuka chowdrey [Source : http://www.ibnlive.com/news/ill-empower-women-chowdhury/26051-3-0.html ]

Even there is 98% misuse, why not there is any change?

Because it is not only against husband but his whole Family. The Western funded Supporter of this law, determined to ruin Family system of India and Sabotage Indian Society.
