    I am no lawyer, but yes there is action against false charges.
    They are counting that you can not afford the cost to defend.
    They are on a very slippery slope.

    I suggest you get a lawyer to accompany you to the meeting, so that you can on completion of this meeting, open a charge of fraud against the offending person/company. Remember that the initial charge that has been submitted is in writing, and in my view can not be withdrawn, so it is no longer your requirement to prove, as this becomes a criminal case, and the state then pursues the case further.

    I am sure one of our learned members will shed further light on this situation.

    Absolutely, or else there would be no investigating officer making the investigation, unless, the call you received is being done as a favour for a friend, in which case a formal complaint to the station commander is in order.
