If an accused person has passed away in a falsely accused case, but their family is completely innocent, lives in a different state, is very poor, has no knowledge of legal procedures, and doesn't understand the language of the other state. They only have the death certificate and are unaware of whether the case is an FIR or a complaint case. In such a situation, what should the family do? What is the process to get the case abated? Can the local police or court in the other state harass the innocent family? Additionally, a lawyer took ₹5000 from the family, did nothing, and later blocked their phone number. What legal actions can be taken against the lawyer for fraud and misconduct?
If the accused has passed away, the family can file a petition in court with the death certificate to abate the case and for harassment by the police, they can file a complaint with the local police or Human Rights Commission. Regarding the lawyer, a complaint can be made to the State Bar Council for fraud, and a criminal case can be filed for the refund. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
