Steps to Take If Police Refuse to Register Your Side of the Complaint

 For most men dragged into false cases—whether it is a 498A IPC complaint,
Domestic Violence Act case, or maintenance dispute
—the very first step they want to take is to approach the police and lodge their side of the story. But in reality, when a husband goes to the police station, he is often humiliated, ignored, or told outright that “this is a women’s law, we cannot take your complaint.” This bias is not accidental—it reflects a deep systemic problem where the law assumes men are always guilty and women are always victims. Unfortunately, countless men across India have faced this injustice, leaving them feeling helpless and cornered.

But the truth is that men do have rights, and there are legal remedies available when police refuse to register their version of events. The only problem is—most men don’t know these remedies, and most advocates never tell them, because advocates benefit when a man is desperate and confused. This is why Men Cell has become the only genuine platform where men learn how to assert their rights and fight back.

Why Police Often Refuse Men’s Complaints

When a wife files a complaint under 498A, dowry harassment, or domestic violence, the police almost immediately record her version and proceed against the husband. But when the husband wants to file his own counter-complaint—whether it is about cruelty by the wife, harassment by in-laws, or even blackmail—the police hesitate. This is because police officers are under pressure to appear “pro-woman” and fear departmental action if they don’t act quickly on a wife’s allegations. Men are told to “settle,” “adjust,” or “fight in court,” while their genuine complaints are dismissed without even a hearing. This selective approach is not law—it is pure bias.

Men Cell has seen hundreds of such cases where police refused to register a husband’s complaint, but with our intervention, men were able to get their version recorded and protect themselves from one-sided narratives. If this is happening to you, don’t suffer silently. Message Men Cell now on WhatsApp: 9873540498 before the opposite side strengthens their case.


The Legal Remedies When Police Refuse Your Complaint

Most men don’t realize that the law itself provides remedies if the police refuse to file their complaint. Under Section 154(3) of the Criminal Procedure Code, a man can approach higher police officers like the Superintendent of Police. If that also fails, Section 156(3) CrPC allows filing a complaint before a Magistrate, who can order the police to investigate. Men can also file private complaints under Section 200 CrPC. But here is the problem—advocates often delay or complicate these remedies, because a confused man means more hearings, more fees, and more years wasted in court.

At Men Cell, we cut through this maze. We tell you exactly what to do and how to do it, so your version is placed before the court quickly. If you really want your side to be heard, don’t depend on advocates who profit from your suffering. Contact Men Cell right now on WhatsApp: 9873540498. We will show you the direct path.

How Ignoring Your Complaint Weakens Your Case

When police refuse to record a man’s complaint, it creates a dangerous imbalance in the case. The wife’s allegations are treated as the only “truth,” while the husband’s silence is taken as guilt. Later, when the case reaches court, judges often ask, “Why didn’t you file a counter-complaint earlier?” This delay can destroy your defense. By the time you act, the false case against you is already strong, and your evidence is dismissed as an afterthought. This is why timing is everything in false 498A and DV cases. If your version is not on record immediately, your chances of success shrink drastically.

Men Cell has saved countless men from this trap by ensuring their complaints are filed in time, their evidence is secured, and their narrative is presented in the right legal manner. Don’t wait until it’s too late—message Men Cell now on WhatsApp: 9873540498 and let us protect your future.


Why Men Cell Is the Only Platform That Fights for Your Voice
