🧭 Introduction

Having your bank account frozen or marked with a lien can be financially and emotionally distressing. Whether it stems from a cyber fraud complaint, suspected illegal transaction, or police investigation, it’s important to know your legal rights and the correct steps to resolve the issue.

At Sanjay Bishnoi & Associates, we handle numerous cases involving bank account freezes, liens, and cyber crime complaints across Sirsa and Fatehabad. Here’s a comprehensive legal guide to help you regain access to your account.

⸻

🔹 Step 1: Contact Your Bank Immediately

Begin by contacting your bank account manager to determine the reason for the freeze.
• Ask which authority or cyber cell issued the order.
• Request written details or a copy of the communication.
• Maintain polite but persistent communication.
If the bank does not cooperate, engage your lawyer to communicate formally on your behalf.

⸻

🔹 Step 2: Gather All Transaction Details

Prepare documents to clarify your financial activities:
• Provide a detailed list of all recent transactions.
• Explain the purpose and source of each transaction.
• Attach proof of your job, business, or income to establish that funds are legitimate.

⸻

🔹 Step 3: Connect with the Cyber Cell or Investigating Officer

If your account was frozen based on a cyber complaint, contact the concerned cyber cell or investigating officer (IO) via phone or email.
• Share relevant documents to prove your innocence.
• Always consult your lawyer before appearing personally or giving any written statement.

Your lawyer can also submit formal representations to the IO requesting the release of your account.

⸻

🔹 Step 4: Engage a Legal Expert

If communication alone doesn’t resolve the matter, consult a criminal or cyber law specialist advocate.
A qualified lawyer can:
• File representations with the authorities.
• Draft and move court applications under appropriate legal provisions.
• Ensure that the investigation proceeds fairly and that your account is unfrozen swiftly.

⸻

🔹 Step 5: Legal Application to Remove the Freeze or Lien

If your account remains blocked, your lawyer may file a petition under:
• Section 497 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNSS), read with
• Sections 451 and 457 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC)

This legal route allows the court to order removal of the freeze or lien once satisfied that no fraudulent activity occurred.

⸻

🔹 Step 6: Removing the Lien

Even after an account is unfrozen, the bank may place a lien (legal hold) on the disputed amount.
• The lien remains until the investigation or trial concludes.
• To lift it, your lawyer can file an application before the court supported by your transaction documents and clarification.

Once verified, the court may direct the bank to remove the lien completely.
