March 7, 2025 at 3:24 amLegally, you have the option to lodge a police complaint or file a civil suit to recover the money, but if the amount isnโt significant, it may not be worth the hassle.A more practical approach could be sending a legal notice through a lawyer, threatening further action, this might prompt him to repay. He might even ignore it but give it a try.
Also consider resolving the issue informally through mutual friends or family.

March 6, 2025 at 4:13 amIf an FIR is filed, two scenarios may apply:
1. Youโre named as the complainant (with your consent).
2. The victim is named as the complainant, and youโre noted as the person who called 112.In both cases, youโll be treated as an informant. The Investigating Officer will record your statement, and your role typically ends there. You may or may not be called to court, depending on whether your testimony is needed by the prosecution or defense.
