India is exactly the same, for its much hyped democracy, it is one of the most corrupt countries in the world. Recently there is a trend for implicating husbands and relatives in criminal cases just because the wife didn't get along. All interested parties including lawyers, judges, police get involved for financial gain.

Recently there is a trend for implicating husbands and relatives in criminal cases just because the wife didn't get along.

It is the same in USA. Every "decent" divorce lawyer's first step is for the wife to whack herself on the face, call the police, and get the husband kicked out of the house. The cops don't like it, but they have to take the report. Sometimes they have enough spine to not arrest the dude.

Yeah this too. Family court is the biggest racket going now.

No, it's not exactly the same. The "much hyped" democracy works. Frauds are everywhere, no surprises there.
