Can a police complaint be filed against my friend's family?

5 years ago

My friend is 18 yeard old. She is a student from Delhi University. Her parents found out that she's in a relationship and deceivingly called her home and didn't let her go back to where her college is. She has no contact since 3 months now. We don't know where she is. Her mother has taken away her phone and threw aways her own phone as well. She doesn't let anybody see her. Can a complaint be filed? If yes, on what grounds?

A.Who are you? What is your status? Why you are so bothered about her? She is safe with her parents. She is an adult knowing what is good for her. You need not worry about that. If you both were legally married then you would have a legal right to get your spouse back but in your case she is just a friend who is now with her parents. They might be planning for her early marriage which if happens she is gone forever from your life, unless she gets divorce and you accept and marry her. Don't ruin your life move on.

A.Dear Sir/Madam

Though a complaint can be filed by you but police may not accept your complaint because of their bad attitude. So, you can contact local human Rights commission or women cell.
