Okay so this happened last night in Mumbai and it genuinely scared me.

I was booking a Rapido late at night. When the driver arrived, my dating app may have been visible on my screen for a second. He suddenly made an extremely inappropriate proposition to me. I was completely taken aback and immediately said no and asked him to cancel the ride.

I started walking away, thinking that would be the end of it, but he began shouting aggressively at me in Hindi, saying things like “come here” and “I’ll show you who I am” and asking where I would hide from him. Thankfully, I had used a pickup point away from my actual home location.

I tried to leave quickly, but he followed me on his scooty and continued shouting. The whole thing felt threatening and unstable. What scared me most was how angry he became just because I said no. He also threatened that he would go to the police and falsely accuse me of asking people for inappropriate things, which makes no sense because I literally just booked a Rapido ride. I didn’t engage with him at all beyond refusing and walking away.

This is the first time I’ve had such a genuinely frightening experience with a ride service, and now I’m anxious about randomly running into him again in public. I never properly saw his face because it was mostly covered. Does anyone know if Mumbai police actually help in cases like this? Should I report it through the app or directly to the police, even if I don’t have proof besides the ride details?

A friend and client sued NoBroker in Consumer Commission over a failed property transaction - and WON.

Here’s how it all began…

This friend (later became my client) wanted to buy an apartment in Bengaluru. I’m gonna refer her as Buyer here.

Seller is settled in the USA.

Buyer hired NoBroker’s “Property Legal Services” package for around ₹35K so the transaction could be handled smoothly.

Instead, NoBroker’s own Relationship Manager (N-RM) ended up frustrating the seller so much that he cancelled the deal entirely.

**Why?**

Because despite repeatedly being told:
• To communicate over email, or
• To fix a time before calling

…the N-RM kept randomly calling the Seller at unannounced hours expecting instant responses.

Anyone dealing with NRI property transactions knows this is the fastest way to irritate a Seller.

After the deal collapsed, the Seller agreed to refund the token amount directly to the Buyer.

She shared bank details.

But then NoBroker stepped in and asked the Seller to transfer the money into NoBroker’s own bank account through a payment link sent over email.

Buyer had never authorized NoBroker to accept or demand payments on her behalf.

Naturally, both the Buyer and the Seller got suspicious.

But since the deal fell through for no fault of my Buyer or the Seller, the Buyer asked NoBroker to refund the price of the package purchased by her since the deal itself collapsed due to NoBroker’s conduct.

Initially:
“Yes ma’am, refund possible.”

Then:
“₹17K already paid to advocate for due diligence.”

Then Finally:
“No refund at all. Services already rendered.”

Mind you, my friend was in her last trimester when all this happened.

So, we filed a case before the District Consumer Commission, Bengaluru.

The Commission basically asked NoBroker:
\- If ₹17K went to due diligence… what happened to the remaining amount?
\- What other services did you actually perform?
\- … And if there was no deficiency, why did you earlier offer refund?

Any lawyer who has practised before DCDRC 1st Additional Bench will know that the Bench is strict in its questions.

It will be sufficient to say… the Bench wasn’t pleased with NoBroker harassing a pregnant lady in her third trimester, making her run after them for a refund they promised.

Ultimately, DCDRC ruled in favour of my client and ordered -

refund with interest + compensation + litigation costs
—————————

A lot of people assume these large prop-tech companies can’t realistically be challenged.

That’s not true.

If you properly recorded the emails, WhatsApp chats, payments, etc. Courts and Consumer Commissions can be extremely effective.

PS: we were able to wrap this case up in less than 10 months.

For the curious minds, you can read the judgment by visiting the website **e-jagriti.gov.in**, click on judgment and type the Case Number - **DC/AB3/525/CC/416/2025**

Stay vigilant, Stay Protected!

I’m a 32 year-old who applied for a passport from Saket , New Delhi . Today was a date for police verification and police showed up at my house . During verification, the officer asked me to submit either of my fathers’ birth certificate.

My parents were born in small villageof assam migrated to delhi at the age of around 11 .. worked in small factory of okla and then settled in saket, he do not have birth certificates, as it was not common during their time. The oldest document he has is voter id card issued in 1996 ... I tried to provide my his old voter id card as proof of nationality , but the officer insisted to get birth certificate.

I thought he was trying to ask the bribe so I gave him chai pani . But he refuses taking it . After too much request . He told me he will have a talk with his senior and will keep your file on hold for 4 days , before giving his final verdict... I am worried guys ...please help . Neither I can make my father's birth certificate as he is 65 yrs old with no prior memory before ..

Is there a easy quick way to get old person brith certificate with in 4 days ??

What should I do now? How can I resolve this issue and proceed with my passport application?

Hey everyone, I need some urgent advice and guidance.

My brother, who is just 17 years old, fell into a massive financial extortion trap over the last 10 days. It started with those fake WhatsApp video call/nude service numbers (he was targeted by scammers who sent packages like "3 min demo for ₹99", "10 mins for ₹199", etc.).

Because he is a minor, he panicked completely when they started blackmailing him. Out of sheer fear, he took money from our mother’s bank account and transferred a total of ₹70,000 via UPI to these scammers over the past 10 days. He hid it from us by making up stories that a friend needed the money.

When I finally found out today and messaged those numbers, they started demanding "service charges." Their regular numbers are now switched off, but we have 3-4 different numbers/UPI IDs they used.

My mother is completely devastated and crying uncontrollably. For our family, ₹70,000 is a massive, significant amount of money, not a small sum we can just look past. We are in complete shock and panicking.

I know that since the transfers happened over a 10-day period, the chances of a bank freeze working are very low, but we are desperate.

i am 16 years old, planning to file a case against my brother (23m as of today) he has sexually assaulted me from ages 6 to 12, 3 times a week. when i turned 13 he got disgusted of me and stopped assaulting me. i don’t have money and am unable to sue him, so i will do that when i am 25 and have completed my degree. i have told my mother, my father about this in august of 2024, but they have completely ignored the event as if it never happened. even worse is ki my brother is claiming i assaulted HIM, and my father got an ips officer (his connections) to tell me i will face grave consequences if i file a “fake” POCSO case. what should i do? i cannot in good conscience go on in life and eventually have a child myself or start a family with the knowledge that i let someone get away with raping me.

what is the procedure to even start this case? do i just go to the police when i feel like it? i had proof of a call recording where he was sobbing and admitted to raping me, but they stole my phone and deleted it. what proof should i have? what is the chance i will even be able to win this case since my parents are hell bent on protecting HIM because ruining their reputation feels like death to them

Hey everyone, I’m in a nightmare tenant-landlord situation in Jalahalli West and desperately need your advice on how to handle structural utility fraud, targeted harassment, and local police bias.

I am a corporate professional working night shifts. I live with my family, and right now, my mother is undergoing intense medical treatments for Tuberculosis. She was hospitalized at Manipal for a week, costing us lakhs, and we are constantly in and out of hospitals.

Instead of showing basic human decency, my landlord has chosen this exact moment of extreme vulnerability to execute a massive extortion and gaslighting campaign.

The Landlord's Audacity at the Police Station

I went to the local station hoping for intervention, but it turned into a total circus. The landlord turned up, flipped the entire narrative, and handed a written statement to the police claiming that I am the one creating a nuisance.

• The Pet Blame-Shifting: He claimed that I am dirtying the entire building just because we have a dog, completely ignoring that we clean up instantly and keep our space immaculate.
• The "Power" Flex: He literally started throwing around his status, demanding "respect" because he is apparently a property owner, a "director," and a "producer" who is far too important to deal with civic issues.
• The Language Weaponization & Cop Bias: Because the police and the landlord spoke entirely in Kannada—which I do not understand—he successfully twisted the facts. The police completely took his side, refused to review my actual digital evidence, told me to pay up his arbitrary bills, and dropped the classic line: "Please adjust." They even threatened that other tenants would file complaints against me if I didn't fall in line.

The Real Story (What the Landlord is Hiding):

The landlord is using this "nuisance" claim as a smoke screen to cover up blatant utility scams and structural neglect that have been documented for months:

• Utility Fraud & Cross-Metering: our dedicated floor sub-meter was also used by other floors for gardening. Our electricity bills were shockingly high even during weeks when the house was completely locked and we were out of the state.
• Financial Coercion: Out of nowhere, he slapped us with a sudden retroactive 6% rent hike and a massive Rs. 8,549 water bill demand without any prior advance contract or formal itemized documentation. He aggressively demanded immediate cash while we were living out of a hospital room.
• Targeted Property Damage: My scooter cover has been systematically cut and slashed with blades overnight inside the building gate, and cleaning staff intentionally sweep common debris strictly underneath my vehicle. The landlord laughed it off and claimed a "stray cat" sliced the cover.
• Active Sabotage of Amenities: For months, we have lived with a toxic, unlivable sewage stench entering our bedrooms from a broken external pipe line that management refuses to fix properly.

My Question to the Community:

I refuse to take this sitting down, and I am not going to let this corrupt man intimidate a family managing a severe medical crisis.

1. Since the local police station is clearly biased and compromised by his local influence/language alignment, can I take my evidence directly to the zonal DCP or the City Police Commissioner's office?
2. What is the fastest way to get the Karnataka State Commission for Women involved to stop this targeted psychological bullying of a female night-shift worker?

Any contacts, legal strategies, or steps to handle this safely would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

I am working in a company since 10 years and yes am being too loyal for this company. But recent months my wages has been cut by 40% and told that company was bearing losses. But as of today I knew that the only my salary has been cut and others are getting their normal salaries and raises also. My boss is also telling that he has purchased a 80lakhs system for ai. So what should I do? Forward legally or what?

I am in a drastic downfall in my life so finding another job now is not possible but yes am try and to find a new job.

This is 13F. Mom and Dad were arguing once more over the mess in the house, including why the bed wasn't clean, and the bottles weren't filled.

They were fighting at first, but as things worsened, Dad began hitting Mum and calling her a villain. She must therefore follow him and be beneath him. She was a housewife, he said. Dad was tougher, but Mum hit him too to protect herself. He shoved her against the wall, punched her, kicked her, and threatened to kill her. When I walked in, Dad also hurt me.

Sincerely, I would appreciate some legal counsel. How should I proceed? I also have a six-year-old younger brother. What should I do if it occurs once more?

Thanks.

The incident happened yesterday evening and till now today morning I'm safe.My mind is replaying the words he said and mentally haunted that I had dreams of smn cutting off my legs.Ive kept the charger cable away from my reach bc yesterday I tried to strangle myself nd my voice is literally gone.As I've mentioned my dad has a women's rights activist image outside but abuses his own women.

My mom was begging me not to call the police nd was defending him,also said she'll protect me to the core..I find it pretty ironic.When she slept I called up the childline they didn't pickup I emailed them got a call back after 6hers,I mentioned the verbal abuse.

Clarifying some queries

1.We were a very happy family except for the isolated incidents of my father being aggressive,This is the time I his words really shook nd to the core.He was a very rough guy during my childhood,got better with time but out of the blue stuff happen it's just the frequency has decreased.I remember him using the same words earlier when I was a kid back then i didn't know what it meant.

2.Hes a really good manipulator knows very well how to assert power and dominance,I've noticed this behaviour when things are not in his favour he throws a tantrum a bloody dangerous one.I was literally asking him to keep quiet my mom silenced me cuz if he thinks he's loosing argument i would get killed.After throwing a tantrum he manipulates with sweet gestures tht will obviously work on mom nd not on me.I can't even complain to anyone bc no one will think this pseudo feminist will do stuff like this.He tried to manipulate me with my fav food but tht didn't work.

3.My mom is not financially dependent on him,she also funded 50% of the expenses to build this house.She wouldn't take sides ofc ik ,I would get funding from her she assured me tht.Also said she'll put me in pg or smthg.

4.Im a single child my only support is child line which is only valid for two days cuz after two days I'll turn 18.Ik this man would manipulate me with sweet gestures on my bday thts not gonna work anymore.

5.Studying and escaping from this asylum is the only way to get out from this father who sexualizes his child.Planning to cut contacts with him,peak ignorance is what I'm showing now.He also verbally abused my mum but smh she's fine w that.

6.Soms people mentioned about him having bipolar disorder,split personality and so on I completely agree.

I can barely see my eyes are very sorry from endless crying,plus I'm dying from heavy periods,Lost my voice.Physically and mentally I'm very weak but thankyou for all those support and advice.Ill try my best to get through.

A guy I know in Assam, India is in a really bad situation and I’m hoping for some practical advice.

His father convinced him to take a HDFC Personal Loan of ₹8.08 lakh in the son’s name, promising he would pay every EMI on time. The son trusted him and went ahead.

Now the father has stopped paying anything. The loan has been overdue for some time (currently ₹30k+ overdue + bounce charges), outstanding principal is still around ₹6.41 lakh, and the EMI is roughly ₹20K per month.

The son got laid off from his job & now is only earning ₹12K per month.

For the last 3 months his entire salary was getting deducted towards the EMI. He has cried, begged, and pleaded with his father multiple times, but the father is not giving even a single rupee.

The loan is entirely in the son’s name, so the bank is chasing him. His CIBIL is getting destroyed. He feels completely trapped and betrayed by his own father.

What should this guy do now?

How to negotiate with HDFC for One Time Settlement or restructuring given his very low income?

Can he legally recover the money from his father even though he took the loan himself?

Any other practical steps? (lawyer recommendations in Assam, debt counsellors, etc.)

This feels incredibly unfair and heartbreaking. Any genuine advice would help a lot.

17f I was mentally devasted and crying about how cbse marking lowered my grades and also entrance exam leaks.Suddenly my dad looses temper and goes ahead with verbal abuse.In the past there are few instances of this level of anger.Already I'm mentally exhausted.He passed three rape threats directly I can't even type it out those are very disturbing.Im shaken I tried to strangle myself with the charger cable,but idk I stopped myself.My mother is defending him saying he will only pass those comments but never attempt to do anything.

He has very amiable personality out but is a devil in disguise,has commented about my breasts multiple types which made me uncomfortable,smacked my ass.Irony is he has spoken multiple times regarding the need of laws to protect women against marital rape and how rapists are not beheaded and what not.Even in that bus incident from kerala where a man unali ed himself he was supporting the victim[very feminist image outside but disguised devil].The thing is I have no evidence to prove,pretty sure my mom will defend him and say that I'm making up things due to exam dilemma.Two guests had just left our house prior to the incident and he was very nice to them,so no chances for recieving statements from them.There is a tenant on our first floor my dad was also very nice to her ,so yeah.They will just label me as a mentally unstable child due to recent exam stress and my complaint will go under the rug.Im literally haunted those three sentences are getting replayed in my mind.

TL;DR: Paid in full for 115g of 24k gold across 6 confirmed orders. Seller dispatched some, recalled them mid-delivery via RTO, held the rest, then cancelled everything with no reason when gold prices rose. Refunded only the original amount, leaving me unable to re-buy the same quantity. Is a consumer complaint for the price difference and compensation worth pursuing?

Posting this to ask whether a consumer complaint is worth filing.

I placed 6 separate online orders with one of India's largest jewellery chains for 24k gold bars, totalling 115 grams on may 2 2026:

Order 1: 50 g

Order 2: 20 g

Order 3: 20 g

Order 4: 10 g

Order 5: 10 g

Order 6: 5 g

All 6 orders were paid in full at the time of ordering. For each order I received an email titled "order confirmation" from their official verified domain, with the order number, item, purity (24KT), price, my billing and shipping address, payment method, and even the assigned courier. I have ordered from them before using the exact same flow, and every previous order was delivered without issue. So as far as I understood, these were confirmed, binding orders.

Here is what actually happened:

1. The smaller items (10g + 10g + 5g = 25g) were dispatched. They physically shipped, the courier tracking showed them arriving in my city, and then, before delivery, all three were recalled back to the seller via RTO (Return to Origin). I asked them in writing why the items were recalled. No reply.
2. The larger items (50g + 20g + 20g = 90g) were put on "hold" status and never shipped.
3. Two days after the recalled items got back to them, they emailed me that ALL six orders were cancelled and a refund would be issued. No reason given. I asked, repeatedly, for a reason. Complete silence.

The only thing that changed between my order date and the cancellation was that gold prices went up. The exact same items were listed on their own website at a higher price on the day they cancelled. On my 115g, the price difference was exactly Rs 1,20,584. In other words, they cancelled, refunded my original amount, and I now cannot re-buy the same quantity of gold for what I had already paid. They effectively pocketed the upside and handed me back my own money.

To put it bluntly: for the sake of a Rs 1,20,584 price swing in their favour, they broke 6 confirmed and fully paid orders, recalled gold that was already out for delivery to me, held the rest, and then cancelled everything with zero explanation. That price difference is the entire reason this happened. Nothing else changed.

What I have done so far:

Sent them a formal pre-litigation legal notice by email and on WhatsApp, citing the Indian Contract Act 1872, the Consumer Protection Act 2019, and the E-Commerce Rules 2020, demanding either delivery at the original price or payment of the price difference, with a 7-day deadline.

Their response: a 4-line template email from a junior customer-service agent saying only "the refund has been processed against the cancelled orders." It did not address a single legal point, did not give a reason for the cancellation or the RTO, and was never routed to a grievance officer despite my asking.

I have since received the full principal refund. Still no reason for any of it.

My questions for the community:

The RTO part bothers me the most. They had already dispatched goods to my city and then pulled them back. Doesn't dispatching the goods mean they had clearly accepted and begun performing the contract? Does the RTO strengthen a consumer case?

Since they have already refunded the principal, do I still have a claim for the price difference and compensation, or does the refund close the matter?

Is it worth filing with the National Consumer Helpline (1915) first, then E-Daakhil / District Consumer Commission if that fails? Has anyone here actually recovered the price differential in a similar gold/jewellery cancellation case?

Any idea why a big retailer would recall goods that were already out for delivery? Is this a known tactic when commodity prices move against them?

Not looking to harass anyone, just want to be made whole for a documented loss caused entirely by their decision, not mine. Appreciate any guidance from people who have been through the consumer forum process.

edit : They did auto-authenticate PAN and Aadhaar details while checking out all the orders over 2L.

Hello

I am staying in newtown since. Marriage year 2020.

We both are working.

My wife shifted to another place in newtown and sent me legal notice alleging mental cruelty, demand for alimony and mutual divorce.

Can anyone suggest a good divorce lawyer who is practicing in family court, divorce cases in High Court Kolkata.

Regards.

2 women have filed posh against me(26M) , their complains seem out of proportions i dont know what to do next here. The IC committee is asking for an explanation and why they shouldn't take an action against me. One girl lets call her Z simply says i made her feel uncomfortable cause i sat beside her and talked, and once i sat behind her in shuttle(force) when there were literally 2 seats available there, she said asked me to move but I clearly remember she didnt ask me to move from the seat in shuttle. The other girl lets call her J, I requested art from her and added her on insta(only msg i sent her was "can u draw somethign for me", as she herself told me that she takes sketch requests). She said i asked her multiple times which made her feel pressure but i only asked here twice for a particular sketch if she should give it to me. How is this POSH, i talked to these women and instead of telling me that it might have made them uncomfortable they mailed it and I had meeting with IC committee(who btw didnt even had a external member and she said they dont need a external member) who wasnt even ready to listen, they were always cutting me never wanting to hear what i have to say. The IC person told me the J girl told me she has a boyfriend who doesnt like her drawings to be given, i didnt even aske any of them about their relationship. What should i do, i categorically denied some of it and accepted i sat with her in shuttle and for the J girl i purchased chewing gum from her from a shop near company, she was beside me i was already paying as a kind gesture i paid for her as well. The IC team isnt ready to listen to my side or let me present women character witness from the company itself. This is ridicoullous what should be my next steps??
IC actually asked me why u sat beside them, I told them they are senior at work so i mostly asked them about the process and work itself mostly. I asked Z for her wrist tattoo only once and said i showed her insta reels on relationship, how is any of this harrasment?

Please help my future might get wrecked cuz of these women who filed it instead of telling me once i made them uncomfortable

Past few years I’ve been struggling with repayment of loans that were originally taken for medical bills in 2021. My father had no health insurance despite me asking him multiple times to get one, and during the emergency I ended up using my credit card and micro-loan apps like Cred and Lazypay to cover hospital payments as well as household expenses.

The amounts were:

• Credit Card: INR 93,000
• Cred: INR 32,000
• Lazypay: INR 28,000

Total: INR 1.57 lakh

At the time I was freelancing as a 3D artist, and I’ve continued trying to survive through freelance work since I still haven’t been able to secure a stable full-time job. Initially I managed to keep the accounts alive by repaying portions and then reusing the available credit for household expenses, bills, and essentials. Eventually my income dropped to a point where I couldn’t even maintain the minimum cycle and I defaulted.

At the same time, there has been an ongoing attempt to sell my grandfather’s house so I could clear all dues properly in one go, but the sale has been delayed due to unresolved property-related issues.

After my grandfather passed away, I also had to relocate to his house to cut down on rent and living costs. Right now I’m the sole earning member of the household and I genuinely do not have assets or immediate funds that can cover the full amount in one shot.

Yesterday, the credit card company contacted me and indicated they had tracked down my current address and said a collection agent may visit within a week if payment isn’t made. I neither confirmed nor denied the address at the time.

I’m not refusing to pay and I’m not trying to run away from the debt. I simply do not have the ability to clear the full amount immediately. I’ve tried asking for support and repayment flexibility, but they are insisting on full settlement instead of partial payments.

At this point I’m honestly trying to understand what options I still have left and how to handle this situation properly without things escalating further.

Hello. I'm 18 years old, based in Kolkata. Between the ages of 14 and 17, I was taken to a private rehabilitation centre five times without my consent, totalling over 50 days of detention.

The reason I was sent there was conflict at home with my parents — behavioral issues typical of a teenager in a difficult home environment. At no point was I assessed by a qualified psychiatrist prior to any admission. No magistrate's order was obtained for any of the five admissions. My parents' signature alone was used to justify each detention — which does not meet the legal standard under the Mental Healthcare Act 2017.

During my time there I was kept with adult criminals and drug addicts. The experience caused me to come out with the worst PTSD of my life that I am still recovering from, currently under psychiatric care and on medication.

During my stay, I discovered this facility operates this way systematically: detaining individuals, including other minors, at the request of family members, with apparent police cooperation. My parents and family were manipulated by the facility's owner into believing this was legitimate rehabilitation.

This is not an isolated case. These facilities exist across India and operate with near-complete impunity.

I am now an adult with full legal standing and I want to pursue this.

Prior to these detentions I had no substance use history whatsoever. My only issue was conflict at home with my parents. The facility's decision to house a minor with adult criminals and addicts directly caused behavioral deterioration that followed my releases.

I am specifically looking for:

Lawyers or advocates with experience in wrongful confinement or Mental Healthcare Act 2017 cases in West Bengal

NGOs working on institutional abuse or illegal detention cases in India

Anyone with experience navigating HRLN, NHRC, or Calcutta High Court for similar cases

Others who have experienced similar situations in rehabilitation facilities

I have documented the incidents in writing and am in the process of obtaining facility records.

If you can help or know someone who can — please reach out.

I have filed a Consumer complaint against Tata Motors and Kropex Auto. The e-jagriti page says under scrutiny. I am receiving conflicting opinions on whether I have to go and submit physical copies first or do it only after the case is accepted. The amount is 25L so there is a fee of 1000 which I guess I need to pay when i submit the physical copy

So we have moved a urgent bail application before the session court and since the regular judge is on leave they have given an incharge court where the Judge is very strict.. now what if the incharge judge rejects the bail ? Can I apply for review before the same bench after he returns or should I move to HC

Hey guys, I am dealing with some absolute workplace insanity right now and I need some urgent legal/life advice.

I work at a tech company located inside a business park/mall, so we use the common public washrooms. I recently noticed that the mall management installed CCTV cameras directly facing the standing male urinal blocks. Knowing this is completely illegal and a massive invasion of privacy, I twisted the camera away so it faced the door instead. I ended up doing this twice.

They caught me on camera twisting it, went straight to my boss, and slapped a ₹2,000 fine on me (which my boss requested them to reduce to ₹1,000).

I went to meet the mall management today to dispute the fine because recording a urinal is straight-up illegal, and it turned into a complete nightmare.

The Extortion & Harassment The management tried to justify the cameras by saying, "We aren't able to see your private parts, we just put them there for safety." Then came the literal blackmail. They threatened to make the video viral and blast it to everyone. And they didn't just mean the clip of me altering the camera—they explicitly threatened to leak the entire video, including the footage of me actually urinating. They casually claimed they hadn't shared it yet "out of respect for my boss."

When I told the manager I don't care if they leak it because extortion is a crime, and that I'm still not paying the fine, he got incredibly aggressive. He claimed he consulted a High Court advocate, told me to do whatever I wanted, and started hurling personal abuses:

• "The parts you have, I have too. What's the big deal?"
• "I am only sparing you out of respect for your boss, otherwise I would have slapped you twice right here."
• "Honestly, I feel like you have female parts down there, that's why you have such a problem with this."

I was so done with his audacity that I just spat back, "Do you want to see? Let's go." The Stupidity (They gave me written proof) These idiots literally handed me a formal, printed tax invoice for the ₹1,000 fine, complete with 18% GST. In the notes section, they clearly wrote in Gujarati: Penalty applied for changing the angle of the washroom camera. They literally handed me written, stamped documentation admitting they have a camera in the washroom!

My Boss's Reaction The management told my boss they are taking the penalty from him. Instead of backing me up, my boss completely folded. He told me he doesn't want to waste his time fighting because the management "has a free team to handle this and we don't." So, his brilliant solution is to just illegally deduct the ₹1,000 fine directly from my salary.

I refused to back down. I just filed an official complaint on the government cybercrime portal, and I am heading to the physical police station this evening right after my shift ends.

Has anyone dealt with taking a management body to the police over severe privacy violations like this? Any advice on how to handle the cops so they register the FIR immediately? Wish me luck.

My sister got married 4 years back. Here are the problems:
1- Her husband had a breakup before marriage which left him mentally ill ( schizophrenia) but he labels as ghost taking over . It was disclosed after wedding.
2- He stopped my sister from going out or meeting anyone.
3- My dad and he had issues because one of my cousin got married in different caste and he wanted my dad not to support which led to bigger fight. My dad apologised him but he didn’t care it’s been more than a year.
4- He never helps with baby as per his mom he is not allowed to change diaper of a baby girl.
5- He keeps on emotionally abusing my sister by keep on blaming and he has started verbal abuse as well. If my sister tells him anything he keeps on hitting himself.
6- His parents also keep on supporting him and blames my sister and dad that they have made him like this. He has self harm tendencies.
7- His mom keeps on demanding “gifts” from us.

They own a house , my sister had paid the downpayment and EMIs . Her husband is co applicant.

There will be no alimony involved , maybe child support.

My sister has become numb she doesn’t react to anything and that man is getting miserable everyday. I don’t want to wait until things escalate to physical abuse.

Please let me know how to proceed.
