She can file a case under section 498A of IPC.  She needs to mention in the First Information Report that her husband or his relative is demanding dowry and treating her cruelly. If she does not mention about the dowry, the case will have a different implication. In other words, if she only mentions hurt the case falls under simple hurt, where the prescribed punishment is up to one year with fine.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Guiding_Principles_for_drafting_FIR\"><\/span>Guiding\nPrinciples for drafting FIR-<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Details of the informant needs to be there<\/li><li>Name of the accused and the number of accused<\/li><li>Detailed information of the commission of offence<\/li><li>Place of incident<\/li><li>details of weapon, if any<\/li><li>The description of the injuries caused<\/li><li>Name if any witness<\/li><li>The reasons behind the delay for filing of FIR.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Alteration_of_the_Contents_of_FIR\"><\/span><strong>Alteration of the Contents of FIR<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>An <a href=\"https:\/\/lawyerinc.net\/in\/quashing-of-fir\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"FIR (opens in a new tab)\">FIR<\/a> contains the first details of the information provided by the informant right after the crime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the informant requests alteration in the information itself, then that raises a question on the sanctity of the initial information provided.
