Delay in filing FIR is fatal to the prosecution case. When prosecution fails to explain the delay, FIR should be viewed with suspicion. If the delay in lodging the FIR is explained, it loses no weight. Delay in giving first information can be condoned if there is the satisfactory explanation.

I fear that a woman neighbour will file a false molestation case against me because we had a quarrel over neighbourhood issues in the past. I need to go outside city for a month on an urgent task. Can I ask police to question me after I return back to the city after a month or on phone or will they arrest me immediately without evidence? Will the police arrest me from another city or will they wait for me to return home after finishing my task?

Can consensual sex be treated as rape due to breach of promise of marriage? There was no intention to call of the wedding by me initially, but due to circumstances of us not getting along forced me to call of the wedding just one month before. I am now being defamed by the girl (she has been impersonating and sending messages to my extended family) for using her and am afraid of a potential law suit. Kindly advice!
