donganaaK Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 The move comes a year after the SC said the law had become a 'weapon in the hands of disgruntled women'. In a major step to end rampant misuse of the anti-dowry harassment law, the Narendra Modi government on Wednesday said it is planning to make the offence compoundable - which will permit compromise and settlement between both the parties at the trial court stage itself. This will be done by amending a specific provision in Section 498 A of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). At present, as the offence is non-compoundable, men and their relatives framed in large number of cases by their wives or her family members simply for extracting money, face harassment at the trial court. They have to move the high court concerned to get their cases compounded. Former Delhi High Court judge justice S.N. Dhingra said: "It will be a huge relief for those willing to compromise or framed. The accused can settle the case with the complainant at the trial court itself after arriving at a mutually-acceptable agreement. Till now the accused, many of whom are framed only for extracting money was subjected to undue harassment in the trial court and they then had to approach the high court to get it compounded…This step will also reduce a lot of pendency in the lower court." "In Delhi, the misuse is less as the police are cautious after my ruling that there cannot be any arrest without the permission of the DCP and I limited the powers of the Crime against Women (CAW) cells who were lodging many cases themselves. They used to illegally summon and order arrest. I ended the tyranny by ruling that CAW cells have no power to take coercive action. The proceedings of these cells are not judicial or quasi-judicial nor can they issue summons to appear before it. That power remains with the judiciary. In other northern states, the less said the better about the police conduct," said Dhingra. The plan to make the offence compoundable was announced by Minister of State for Home Affairs H.P. Chaudhary in the Rajya Sabha. "A draft note for the Cabinet which, inter alia, seeks to amend section 498A of the IPC, making it compoundable, has been sent to the legislative department, ministry of law and justice for drawing up the draft Bill," he said. The move comes a year after the Supreme Court said the law had become a "weapon in the hands of disgruntled women". Expressing concern over the misuse of the law, the apex court had directed the state governments to instruct police not to automatically arrest when a case under Section 498A of the IPC (dowry harassment) is registered but to satisfy themselves about the necessity for arrest under the parameters laid down flowing from Section 41 of the Criminal Procedure Code. What is Section 498 A IPC? It is a provision under which a husband, his parents and relatives can be booked for subjecting a woman to cruelty to meet their unlawful demands (dowry). Generally, the husband, his parents and relatives are immediately arrested without sufficient investigation and put behind bars on non-bailable terms. Even if the complaint is false, the accused is presumed to be guilty until he or she proves innocence in the court. The maximum punishment if proved guilty is imprisonment for three years.
