A.Dear Client,
If someone has fled to Canada after engaging in a false pretext of marriage, and you believe it involves criminal conduct like Section 376 (rape) of the Indian Penal Code, it is important to take appropriate legal action. You can file a complaint with the local police detailing the circumstances, providing evidence, and explaining the false pretext of marriage.
In cases involving offenses committed across borders, coordination with law enforcement agencies becomes crucial. It might be helpful to contact the relevant authorities or legal assistance in Canada, as they may have procedures for handling such cases.
Additionally, consult with a legal professional in India who can guide you on the specific legal actions to take. Depending on the circumstances, they may advise you on initiating legal proceedings, seeking redress through courts, or coordinating with authorities in both countries. Gathering all relevant evidence and maintaining detailed records of the false pretext and subsequent events will strengthen your case. It's important to act promptly and seek appropriate legal advice tailored to your situation.
Thankyou
