Passport Impound due to matrimony cases
3 years ago
My Passport is Impound due to matrimony cases. Wife complained to passport authority and passport authority treating i m more than KASAB. By this they are doing openly partiality. No FIR on me till date , i presented these matter in front of Chief Passport Officer in a appeal too via a self affidavit but they are not listening. What can be done. I consulted with my lawyer he was saying since no criminal cases going on you what court will provide you.
CrPC 12 and Domestic Violence cases are quasi-criminal in nature. As long as court has not issued any warrants of attachment/production against , i shouldn't need any permission from court to get passport.
But passport authorities are not listening.
The 498A case is with 156(3) private complaint by my inlaws but court treats it under section 200 parivaad.
Please help and guide me what can be done as no one is listening.
Thanks

Gross misuse of 498A is very common nowadays.
Since you are not guilty of any such acts, you can file a writ petition against the passport authorities in the HighCourt since you have the merits of the case in your favor. Impounding of passport is invalid.
Hope this helps.

2. a deep understanding of the cases and representation submitted by you is required before forming a legal opinion,
3. impounding the passport without any reason is a clear violation of the right to travel and gross misuse of power
