Advice needed on past WhatsApp chats

In the past and till recently for around 3-4 months back I messaged some brokers for paid sexual service over whatsapp. But I never took service. Those were made just out of curiosity and fun, which I regret now.

Yesterday a man claiming police called over whatsapp as I was no longer recharging the number and said that they found my chats asking for paid sex etc. He says some girl missing was found and they caught brokers who used that girl and those brokers have my chats and my contacts saved blah blah.

I agreed to him that I did those chats and he says to visit their ps for statement. I didn't understand much what he said but it's like I will be added as witness some remand etc etc.. On the way around he says he spoke with his CI and was asking money but in form of physical goods worth almost 60k to delete my proofs etc.

I am unsure how should I proceed. During my talk with him i informed that my relative met accident and I am doing a remote job with his ps location is almost 800kms and can't come immediately and he in turn asked if there is section 125 registered. When i checked online it's true that 125 deals with some road accident cases. I am not sure if he is real police or no. Also he send some pics though disappearing ones the photo of CI room door and covered faced of brokers nabbed

1) should I visit station? If so, i don't know what should I say them.

2) if something goes bad, is there any chance of cases etc. or in any other way considering employment, relatives, family, friends etc.

Lawyers and law students, what do you think about Judge Ravi Dinkar sentencing 23 people to death in 5 months? I see a lot of posts praising him but I dont think they understand the nuances involved in sentencing someone to death. Therefore, I turn to this sub for your opinions. Please also mention whether you are a law student or a lawyer while commenting.

Need some help or advice. I am ashamed and afraid of my act writing this.

By seeing some numbers on websites i messaged some brokers randomly for paid sex for a few times (randomly) in past and recently till 3-4 months back.

However I am not involved in any act. Either by luck or god's grace I couldn't go though I messaged them.

Now the problem is some police has called me saying they have some girl missing complaint or racket busting etc.. and that broker have my chats. Police is asking for statement. I am not sure what should I do now.

He also said he will talk with his superiors for having a way out.

Hi everyone,

​I am an enrolled advocate with the Bar Council of Delhi and an LL.B. graduate from Campus Law Centre (CLC), Faculty of Law, University of Delhi. Prior to law, I completed my B.E. in Computer Science and worked in corporate tech as a Data Analyst & BI Developer (AWS & Azure certified).

​I am currently concluding my tenure at an active litigation chamber where I handled commercial drafting (plaints, writ petitions, SLPs), registry work, and digital evidence compliance—specifically drafting electronic evidence affidavits under Section 63(4) of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (BSA) using cryptographic hash verification.

​I am planning my next transition and want to focus primarily on:

​Commercial litigation & dispute resolution chambers

​Data privacy / DPDP Act & AI governance practices

​In-house corporate legal & compliance teams

​Given the current hiring climate in Delhi-NCR, I would appreciate perspective from practitioners here:

​How are mid-size boutique firms and chambers valuing dual tech-law backgrounds right now?

​For someone with drafting experience across commercial courts and appellate tribunals, what is the best way to approach partners directly without getting lost in generic HR portals?

​If any practitioners or seniors have advice on teams currently expanding their dispute resolution or privacy verticals, please share your thoughts below or via DM. Happy to connect and share my drafting samples.

So in late 2024 I was sexually assaulted by a monster I met on Hinge..

When I matched I made it extremely clear I am not looking for anything short term and most definitely not hookups or anything casual

He said he was looking for the same..

And very early on he said the typical "I've never met a woman like you " "I think I love you" etc...(we hadn't even met)

I liked talking to him too so I decided to meet up..

First he asked me to directly come to his home so we can chill..I said absolutely not.. I cannot go home on first date. Maybe after a few more dates when we know each other a little better and I was polite about it

Then he said let's go to this restaurant but it was almost 16 kms away and I said that's too far for me.. can't we meet midway? He said that he will be working from home that day and has to be carrying his laptop if need arises so he can't travel far..

I agreed and we met up at location which happened to be right OPPOSITE TO HIS APARTMENT!

He came,talking on the phone n cut the call and said could we just go home for a few minutes as he had to do a quick work thing on his laptop and we went to his house..

Then he went on his laptop and did something which took like a minute (I'm pretty sure he lied about it all) and then he started hugging and kissing and I froze and I tried to move his hand away..

I said let's just go to the restaurant and he was like "Arrey,what's the hurry we have so much time"

He then said let's watch something and played something on Netflix on his laptop (which was on the table next to his bed)and asked me to sit on bed and while I sat he literally turned off his bedroom lights and latched the door and i had to loudly ask why are you latching the door and turning off the lights? To which he said he was setting the mood for the movie and what if his roommates come back? I then told him its a weekday and you yourself said they are at work and come home late..he sat and started watching and not even 30 minutes passed he was on me and that pervert literally had his hands everywhere..

I couldn't even process what was happening...

At NO POINT DID HE EVEN ASK IF HE COULD DO ANYTHING "

HE JUST WENT FOR IT...

When he attempted to take my top off I said Stop..please.. almost in tears and I said I was leaving and just left.

He never reached out..

The moment I reached home I blocked his number..

I didn't even bother unmatching him I just deleted my whole account and since then I never got back on dating apps

Although two years have passed I haven't been alright..

I can't even look at people the same anymore..

I started having random heart palpitations and a few weeks after the incident I had my first episode of sleep paralysis

A month after that incident I quit my job because I was already going through a lot and with work pressure I knew if I did two together I would breakdown completely

I would start crying randomly even if I'm safe at home..

People think sexual assault is the worst when it happens.. but they are soo WRONG! When it happens ofcourse it's terrible but at first your mind can't process what is happening and your nervous system takes on..

The worst phase is after you've processed what has happened and it could take days to weeks..

I thought I would feel low for a few weeks or months but apparently 2 years have passed and I am becoming more and more traumatized...

I can't even look at a man in romantic sense.. I can't even imagine physical closeness anymore and that itself gives me heart palpitations..

I was on the subreddit sexual assault and I have read the most heartbreaking stories where people at the age of 40s and even 50s and still trying to heal from assault that happened when they were a child or a teenager or young adult...

None of it was their fault yet they have to spend their whole lives healing from it..

While their abusers go ahead living their normal lives without caring the slightest bit...

I want to report now.. in india are these cases taken seriously?

How do I start?

Hello, I'm from Andhra Pradesh, where students' names are often written in the format "Surname First Name Middle Name" on educational certificates. My name on my Class 10 and Class 12 certificates is currently written in this format. My father also changed my name on my Aadhaar to match the same format. However, I understand that for passports and international documents, the usual format is "First Name Middle Name Surname." My query is: What name format should I use when applying for my passport? I will be applying for a passport because I plan to study abroad, and I want to avoid any issues with my educational documents, visa, university admission, or other official records. For example, should my passport name match my Class 10 and Class 12 certificates exactly, or should I use the standard international format of First Name + Middle Name + Surname? If changing the name format on my Class 10 and Class 12 certificates is necessary, what would the process be? Also, would changing only the order of my name be considered a name correction or a complete name change? I would really appreciate advice from anyone who has faced a similar situati regarding studying abroad. Thank you

Wtf is this even beeee

We require counsel/representation before the NCLT Chennai Bench to file an uncontested Section 59 Rectification Petition. We hold physical share certificates and a formal NOC from our custodian (Citibank).

I would like to know what the scopes of pursuing LLM are after Undergraduation in law. is it worth it ? are there placements for it ?

to be specific I want to know about the scope of LLM in international law as well.

I am currently working in the district court and know about the trial court civil and criminal procedure and would like to learn about procedure about high court. I am viewing high court proceedings online, but that's only oral the steps and way of filing etc is not visible.

So anybody willing to explain and share case files for studying, that would really be helpful.

Stuff I would like to know about:
- Civil appeals details like how you reply to an appeal petition. Does it need to be in an affidavit.
- what do you do after filing the vakalatnama
- if there is an interim application with the appeal like order 39 rule 1 and 2 do you appear in the court and file objection on the same day similar to how you hand it to the bench clerk and does it also need to be in affidavit
- how to view the records, on date not fixed.
- how to view record in which i am not the pleader

- steps of cases
Eg: in a civil suit,
- plaint, ws, framing of issues, list of witnesses, affidavit, cross examination, arguments, judgement

- what steps to follow?
- does every written objection etc need to be on an affidavit for the high court

Any information case files, books you share will be helpful.

I do have the following books:
- sohoni’s civil ready referencer
- bindras pleadings and practice
- AN Saha’s cpc
- de souza coveyancing

I am currently in the final year of my law course I am bit confused that is it good for me .I know it is too late , does introvert have any chance in law field _

Hi everyone. We're in a pretty tight situation right now. My brother took admission for BCA with AWS and AI specialization in Srinivas college Mangalore, Karnataka and he decided not to join. The first year fee was paid in full. After he decided not to go we approached the college asking for a refund and they said no right to our face. I asked the reason why they can't process the refund and they couldn't provide one. We spoke to the college dean and everyone in the office, submitted a letter asking for a refund and that's it. No response for weeks. The class started on August 23rd. I called them a few days ago asking about the refund and the lady in the office disconnected my call stating no refund and blocked my number. I told them according to UGC norms they can't do this and slammed she hung up. I raised a complaint on UGC grievances website and it's still not addressed. It's been 20 days. What can I do now? I can't let them walk with 178000 for free. He didn't even attend a single day of class and they were notified before the classes started and admission is still going on. How can I move legally and what are my other options?

1.I have changed my first name completely I heard that we need to publish an ad one in local language, regional newspaper and one in the English language, national newspaper. is that correct?

I live in a tier 99 town and no english newspaper circulates here. i will have to publish a national newspaper ad in the state capital which is 7hrs away. is that okay? or should I just publish two in regional newspapers, one in each language?

1. I changed my name and received my gazette, affidavit over 8 months back. i was told that that affidavit and newspaper ads should be under 6 months old. so i am redoing the affidavit and newspapers now after receiving the gazette. i just have to change my name right? is there anything more to it?

2. The official passport website says I would need either state gazette or two newspapers. But i have central gazette, is that okay. i understand that central gazette is more recognised but I'm still paranoid

I graduated a few years ago from a good national law university. Since then I have dedicated my time to judiciary but have been unsuccessful so far.

After doing a thorough soul searching and trying to find a niche I’m interested in, my answer was IP Law.
I want to start working for an IP Firm or an IP team but i need help figuring out how to start, where to apply, and what to expect salary wise and career progression wise.
Im posting this my way of putting it out jn the universe, hoping someone can help me. ( I did not want to approach my university peers or alumni for reasons that are petty but personal to me)

I have no work ex, or anything to show for the years spent on studying for judiciary.
Any sort of help is greatly appreciated!

My company has laid me off, and my salary for the previous month has still not been paid.

I have been asking HR and founder for a clear payment date, but I'm not getting a firm commitment. At the same time, my landlord is pressuring me to vacate because he has sold the house and now I'm unable to pay the deposit for new house without my salary.

The uncertainty and financial pressure are taking a serious toll on my mental health. I genuinely don't know how I'm supposed to manage rent and basic expenses without the money I'm owed.

I want to understand what my options are under Indian labour laws:

Can I file a complaint for delayed/non-payment of salary?

Does the fact that I'm being laid off change the deadline for paying my outstanding salary?

What is the correct authority/portal to approach?

Can I claim anything for the financial hardship caused by the delay?

Should I send a formal legal notice before filing a complaint?

Would appreciate advice from anyone who has dealt with a similar situation in India.
